Customer Reviews
Background knowledge needed
Unless you’ve got a pretty good background in theology, this will be largely inaccessible (as it is to me). That said, my interest in ameliorating that deficit in myself, as well as the hosts’ humor and the brilliance of both the hosts and guests makes it an enjoyable listen regardless. I would, however, appreciate some lower level topic introductions for neophytes like myself.
Please bring this podcast back.
Please.
Excellent show
Thank you so much for this. I am waiting eagerly for the Russians on wisdom.
