Review
Anne is a Man
Anne Frid De Vires wrote us an
amazing review
that you can find on his blog about academic podcasts. He also
wrote a follow-up where he offered us some serious
advice which we followed at the end of the Irish Mythological
Cycle series. Anne's blog is a fascinating resource. He
says:
"While looking for Dutch audio, I discovered
podcasts. When investigating the iTunes directories, I soon
discovered the history and science podcasts I came to like so much.
Among the first were Berkeley's History 5, Shrink Rap Radio and the
Dutch podcast Simek 's Nachts. After many months of listening, I
began this blog and dedicated it to reviewing the majority of
podcasts I find."
