Absolutely wonderful
I’m always in a good mood after listening this podcast. The voice, the humour of Jacke - honestly I’m so glad that I can listen to this guy and laugh along. It’s a pure joy for me.

Literature does help. Some people go to church, I go to my weekly episode. May this podcast continue for as long as possible. From … with love! Katia.
