Besides that, it is wonderfully written. Totally recommend it. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

A Story and a Song - this was an enjoyable episode to begin with. Updating it with such a lovely song was a wonderful idea. It invoked wonder memories of Catalina. (I listened to the song several times.)

The Memory Palace and Nate Dimeo are what podcasts so special and unique. His voice, the show is super cozy - even when the topics aren’t. Informative as it is creative, always earnest and compelling. It makes me feel like I’m listening to art.
