“I know he can't help it, but the main moderator Stephen Metcalf has potentially the worst speaking voice ever. I can't stand listening to his creepy pronunciations and overuse of the word "sumptuous".

“OH! LOOK AT ME! My opinion of American culture is more valid because I'm an over-educated egghead ... Snooze. I listened to this podcast for months (why exactly I can't answer) but was moved to finally unsubscribe (and write this) after listening to Stephen Metcalf's pretentious...”Read full review »
