Excellent Understanding if what we want

Such a great way to get the gen. on any subject. Inquisitive, searching, incisive.
A common sense no nonsense approach to anything.
I am a regular subscriber, he makes everything make perfect sense. I loved the way he interviews the ghost tour guide, relaxed yet informative.
