Cheers from France

I am training to be a classics secondary teacher (exams in two months!) and I find this podcast really clear and helpful. Thank you Paul and keep on the good work.

Rapide, mais complet.

Thank you for this podcast. There may be no music at the beginning or at the end, no introduction of each episode, but it's maybe even better : i'm tired of podcasts where presenters spend half of it speaking about themselves. So, good job !
