    Such a great podcast. It takes me forever to get through an episode because I keep pausing to look up all the interesting terms that they use and then I go down various rabbit holes I would have never found otherwise.

    I’ve listened to the podcast for ages. The energy is always great. Today I listened to the first episode for the first time and realised that this was recorded on a very important day for me also - the last day of a long work journey. It is a podcast of optimism and hope for the future.
