#E178 (excel to exceptionally)
I read from excel to exceptionally.

Customer Reviews
A crackling fire to cozy up to
Fun, relaxing, and surprisingly engaging. I enjoy turning on this podcast whenever I need to relax my mind, or expand it.
Honestly don’t know what I was expecting
I don’t know what I was expecting, but this actually cracked me up! Definitely good for while I am working and need something light.
Words!
I love this podcast I have listened up to 247. Spencer is great he needs to remember to copy the language abbreviation page but otherwise this podcast is awesome and every once in a while you will learn a new word that you can use in everyday conversation or to impress your smart friends.
