Loving the level of detail that is going into this - it’s quite granular and, once the host gets his seas legs, the narrative episodes tend not to be boring at all (I’m not personally a huge fan of the interview episodes, all of his guests are experts in their fields but I suspect that not all of those guests excel at, say, teaching undergrads.😇) That said, it’s absolutely worth a listen solely for the core narrative! 😀

His knowledge is astounding and his mellifluous British voice adds to the experience. This offering is a must listen. Do yourself a favor and start listening. From a rebellious Colorado subject of the English crown, a nobody of Thornton who merrily paints miniatures while listening, thank you for great, scholarly, entertaining hours of content.
