NPR eat your heart out.

I am so impressed with this podcast. The writing and production are up there with the best professional podcasts I have listened to.

The delivery is excellent. I also love the bite sized running times. Just right for something to pass the time waiting for the next bus or train.

I will be very happy when one of these pops up in my feed.

Episode 26

What a load of garbage! The reader sounds like Siri and I can’t get past 10 minutes of the over acted performance.
