Never fails to educate

I have not been a Podcast person before, but I have become addicted to listening to this Podcast every day, and catching up on missing episodes. I feel that as a result, I have a good, balanced knowledge on the topic. The quality is really excellent and the usual contributors entertaining as well as highly educative - I feel i have known them all for years! The first anniversary video podcast was a real highlight .. we also got to meet some of the team..! Hopefully you will do more of these in the future.
