Does anybody else think Melvyn Bragg is getting really loose? I like it.
Yes.
New
In Our Time's starting Sept. 19th. I do enjoy the shows on physics and mathematics when Melvyn's trying to wrap his brain around that shit. And I make an exception about external noise bleeding into the mics- like the sound of tea cups and saucers. As long as no one is munching on cookies (UK: "biscuits").
The
Todd Barry Show has found a spot in my regular rotation of podcasts on my shuffle. It reminds me of the early days of WTF. He makes great conversation with people I've never heard of before and with people I'd never thought I'd like, like Colin Quinn, although I haven't listened to the one with jabberjaw Judah Friedlander the Hat Comedian yet.
I even like the street noise out the window and the hum of his A/C and fridge. It's NYC in the summer, man!
