Nice pod!
Such a good pod, top notch guests, learning heaps & very entertaining :)
I’ve listened to a few dozen episodes now and found I like them best when balanced by guests who can joke tremendously but also handle at least a single serious moment without affecting a silly voice or making a very tedious joke. More Adam Knox and Luca Muller!
Fun pod with some good reviews… until you get stuck listening to a noisy guest cackling at their own jokes because they forgot who the main character is… The Book.
Dave makes learning fun
