Adore your podcast and the most recent episode detailing your childhood through academia career path was MOST charming.
This was really an outstanding episode, from the story of your experiences, to an interesting text, with some interesting meditations on literary progress as well. Well done!
Great episode! I enjoy getting some insight into what makes our podcaster tick. Thanks for the introduction to Mediaeval Baebes.
I love the mystery words but I’m terrible at the riddles. I always guess “a bed”. It’s never a bed. Thanks for sharing your expertise!
Thanks!
