Thanks for the great shows!
Listening in CA - got it off iTunes.
I did listen to your podcast about the Mississippi Flood. Very good to connect the direct perception from people (expressed so well) to actual events. And what a music. Compliment for your selection.
Just like someone else who has commented here - Thanks for the great shows!
I've been listening to them over the last few weeks, and I've just got to say that your show has been such a great find for me. Your show is the only outlet (I know of)where this great music is showcased.
The way you put together a theme for each episode gives a great character to your podcast.
Keep up the great work! Cheers from Toronto,
Ian
I appreciate the compliments. It's pretty easy to put the shows together when the musc speaks for itself so well on a subject like the 1927 flood.
