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
