Feel good
Current affairs podcasts are getting so depressing. I have this sort of sense of duty to be aware of why I should be worried about the possibility of Israel and Iran starting a war or how the Taliban overran the Afghan army but it doesn’t put a spring in my step. Even This American Life has lost some of its “wow” factor. But Function Room puts a smile on my face every time. Colm has a voice that subtly instructs you to chill out. I compare it with “You’re Dead to Me” that tries do the same for history. I enjoy the podcasts but there is a sense of desperation to be “fun” that is not there with Colm. I wish there were more Function Room podcasts but get the feeling that saying “Come on, work harder!” to Colm would be counter productive. Every one on the list is inspired.

Colm strikes gold with this combination of humour and science. Fabulous guests and a really interesting listen.
