Interesting, engaging and fun!

I thoroughly enjoy the STONE APE PODCAST. While listed in the "Philosophy" category, it's something more than just philosophical musings.

For me, it's something that helps keep my mind sharp. A podcast that keeps me thinking about the world around me. Tom and Heron chat and it feels like hanging out in the living room together talking about life and the world around us. It's funny, thought provoking and highly entertaining.
