Very sexist views here. Not impressive
This episode made me smile so much - as in, walking around in public alone, smiling widely while people around me probably gave me a wide berth kind of smiling. Joy! I'm going to give my intro level, wobbly-edged weaving hobby another go. Thank you.
The topic is so interesting but the way it's presented makes it unlistenable. I've never heard of the presenter before and I assume it's meant to be a "comedic" podcast but it's so lame and unfunny.
