Just discovered this hilarious and entertaining series . I laughed and learnt new stuff at the same time .
I am a Timeteam fan and was delighted to discover this podcast, although it goes beyond history and archaeology. Tony is a great interviewer and his guests are well chosen. More please.
Robinson is the ideal podcast host: he is warm, engaging, inviting, and knowledgeable. He makes his guests welcome and isn’t afraid to give them the spotlight, occasionally inserting a comment that is engaged and meaningful.
I loved this episode! Thank you for doing the Blackadder episodes. I hope it ends up on one of the U.S. Streams like Britbox.
Love the subjects in this podcast, love national Treasure Sir Tony and love the fact he asks what might be deemed by other “celebrity” interviewers as a daft or embarrassing question, buts it’s exactly the one you’re thinking yourself. Asked not for his lack of understanding, but that his natural affinity with his audience; which helps us along; a sure sign of his thoughtful intelligence. His recognisably warm and funny tone is something to treasure indeed.
