Section D

It could be great. The content and subjects discussed are relevant, current and interesting. it is such a good idea and there is a real diversity of content on this and the other Monocle podcasts. However the interview technique and tweeness of Tom Morris and Aled John is irritating. Continually closed questions and the presentation is a bit precious. Otherwise, great.

Appreciated

I appreciate this show but because I also subscrive to The Curator, I occasionally have to listen to things I have heard on Section D twice, once here and once on The Curator.
