Bonthra ,

Great for Gardeners & Home Cooks

I started on the tomatillo episode and it was FANTASTIC! They discussed how to grow the fruit, care for it, protect from pests, harvest, store, and cook them. Great reference and enjoyable to listen to.

If I had to have a critique, it would be the lack of editing out coughs. It seemed like one of the speakers wanted to cover a cough because she repeated what she was saying beforehand, but the cough remained. But this is a minor, MINOR critique.
