More I nfo in notes
Nice podcast !
Please add a bit more info to episode notes. Was frustrated not to catch the location names of Eurasian region covered in “Breakaway States and Pandemic” episode.
Anecdotal observations
It’s interesting to listen to but it is just about as far from science as one could get. The guests and hosts of the show offer mainly anecdotal evidence explaining, country infection rates. If you’re looking for some almost comic relief in your Coronavirus reporting this is not a bad choice. It’s quite entertaining but hard to take seriously.
A fresh deep-dive on overlooked topics
Amy Mackinnon and James Palmer are captivating podcast hosts with a treasure trove of knowledge. I’ve learned something new and revealing with every episode, and it's among my top go-to morning podcasts. Well done!
