Love listening to your podcasts. You've had some truly amazing guests. Great laughs, memories, tears and happiness. Would love to hear Dame Patricia Routledge.

We have long been fans of Gyles Brandreth, enjoying him wherever he turns up, be it on This Morning on ITV, such programs as QI, Just a Minute and recently, rather charmingly, as an Assistant on the lovely Alexander Armstrong's 'Pointless'. These podcasts are a delight and we have only just begun to work through them, with his interview with Chris MaCausland. There is a lot of fasciating listening ahead......

It is an absolute pleasure listening to these. I love Mr Brandreth's sense of humour. Please continue producing these podcasts. I am hooked.

Wonderful! Thank you ! Loving your podcasts...making me relive my earliest memories, am so lucky to have had a wonderful childhood ( there was an awful time) but I 'drown' those incidents away.. always remember the wonderful days being brought up on the edge of Dartmoor!
