“This is a brilliant podcast. I love learning about new people and their passions and at times their life lessons. It doesn’t matter the subject there’s always an aspect that totally blows my mind. Richard and Sarah bring their own unique ‘conversational journalism’ style to every guest. To those...”Read full review »

“I can no longer download ABC podcasts onto my desktop and then transfer to my old iPod. This means that my long enjoyment of a nightly listen in bed of ABC podcasts has come to a grinding halt. A pity.”

“I was considering buying Beard’s book until I heard this episode when she dragged in the concept of a “trans” Emperor on very flimsy evidence”. Having listened to other podcasts and read quite extensively on Roman leaders and not seen anyone else make this wild link, I think I’ll spend my money...”Read full review »

“Wonderful Conversations. For me the best yet, but I’d strongly recommend listening to it a long way away from any other human being, and to try to avoid talking about it with others.”

“Having a lawyer discuss complex neuropsychological conditions was a major misstep. The information presented in this episode is seriously flawed. Why layman think they can write books on these topics is baffling - please don’t validate it by giving them air time.”
