Like listening to an interesting yet politically incorrect grandparent.
This podcast is incredibly interesting and professional with some fantastic guest speakers and topics. However this podcast is a shrine to traditional and out of touch academia as many of the guests are self- important fossils who represent a stifling academic community that limits and dominates discussion. Melvyn is subversively charming in a sexist and misogynistic way, as many of the fascinating viewpoints and opinions of the female guests are overlooked, contested unnecessarily or simply ignored. The BBC needs to drop Melvyn and inject some much needed modernity and vitality into this podcast with potential to change the debates and discussions our society has.

Quite dry, but stays on-topic, covers the various topics extensively, and is easy to follow.

More like Crap-ernican Revolution. To things themselves!
