Great podcast and well up to BBC usual high standards. As noted by others though find the music mix very "jarring" at points, WAY too loud compared to the narrative and has you reaching for the volume control. However this is nitpicking in what is a meticulously researched and very well presented podcast.
Very interesting - but geez- what a HORRIBLY edited podcast.....
well, that's some bad editing.....
