    I am a philosopher, so you might expect me to like listening to philosophy. But it is not just the fact that it is philosophy. The philosophers chosen are top notch, and the interviews - dialogues - are get a lot covered in a short amount of time. I am learning a lot, even just on the way to work.

    The app now fits my screen and is super elegant and useful. I love the continuous playback on/off option. But of course the app is only a vehicle for accessing some of the internet's best content. I hope the show continues for many years!!
