Thanks
I very much enjoy your show however at times the introductory points such as this weeks historical place and then usually some other follow are distracting- the somewhat monotone recitation of facts is a bit difficult to listen to as well At times - I think you should focus on lively story telling recitation of facts as well as one introduction of the weeks historical place and then jump into the story or feature episode- it’s less distracting and helps the listener maintain focus rather than having to wait and sort through what the episode is actually about or what other facts or story’s - cut to the chase and liven it up - thanks I do really enjoy hub history and this podcast just my observations for easier listening
