Incredible work
As a podcast junky and an early adopter of the medium, and a complete geek when it comes to history, this is one of the most towering pieces of work I’ve encountered in this medium. Peter puts in what must be an unfathomable amount of work to present his topic - as the title says - without any gaps. The fact that he has chosen not to monetise this in a day and age where this could be a serious income stream tells you something about his passion and selflessness. I’m writing this just after the show passed the landmark of 400 episodes.
Outstanding
This podcast is an absolute gift: authoritative, engaging, striking just the right balance between erudition and communication. Many thanks!!
