Klantrecensies
Hugely recommend!
Hey guys,
I don’t normally do this as I prefer to leave as little a footprint on here as possible! That being said, after a couple of years of listening over various topics, I am constantly impressed with the tone of the podcast.
Insightful, witty and with a good sense of morality, it offers an informative and interesting opinion on a wide range of topics.
p.s. As a Brit living in the Netherlands it’s great listening to The accent of Rutger! People overhearing always recognize him as a Dutchman!
