(Update 14/11/8: Brian Dunning is currently serving time. But the guest hosts have so far rather improved the podcasts quality. Brian's sometimes dominant NeoCon/Libertarian perspective is less apparent in the recent shows)
Awesome + Großartig
This is one of the best, and most of all continuously well done podcasts in my (not so) humble opinion. I have listened since episode one, and gladly so. Keep up the good work, Brian!
Dies ist (meiner Meinung nach) einer der besten und dauerhaft excellent produzierten Podcasts. Ich bin seit der ersten Folge dabei und das sehr gerne.
Weiter so, Brian!
So ein Spaß
