The best!
This is the only genealogy podcast I listen to regularly, and I have tried many. The magazine format moves along without dragging, the features are interesting, and I pick up little bits to try out later. David Allen Lambert adds a conversational tone to the start of each episode, and featured guests are knowledgeable.
