Perhaps this would have been a more engaging podcast, and as a result would be taken more seriously, had the host not put on silly little voices and tried to be a comedian whilst telling the story. He’s an insufferable idiot. It’s such a shame as the subject matter is so interesting, but it has been ruined by the man-child in charge; the Father Dougal Maguire of podcasting.
