Incredibly informational podcast

This podcast is my favorite to listen to. Just overall enjoyable to get the perspective of a scholarly and an introductory point of view.

First podcast I was able to actually listen to

I hate podcasts. This was recommended to me and I find myself listening to it more than I listen to music. Thanks for making it!
