These podcasters are credentialed academics and they are quintessential favorite teachers (professors!).
Disappointed to hear in a recently reconsidered episode to hear a child referred to as a woman.
Loved 260 and hope you do more episodes with your mother.
The podcast is teaching, interesting and delightful to listen to. Keep up the good work! :)
This used to be one of my favourite podcasts until there started to be SO many LONG ads!! Some in the middle over 5 minutes long sometimes, even at the end!! Hardly listen to anymore now. Stop with the long ads in the middle of your episodes!!
I used to love this podcast but lately it seems like any time a question is posed neither host has an answer! Where is the research!?? Cancelling my subscription.
