Really really good
I never wrote a comment but this podcast tells funder story very well.
This is worked, there is a voice over and you hear extract of radio, interview, television.
It's from the same quality than npr (Ted radio and whobuiltthis) but with a special touch (They bring you with the characters to their breakfast)
Well done to the team !
