   Love from London.
   Every time I manage to get someone to listen to just 1 of your shows, they become addicted and go back as far as the podcast will let them! Then I dont see them for a Month, or until they have listened to every show they can get their hands on. I dont know any other show people will do that for, especially for ‘Current affairs’ shows like yours.
   That says a lot.

   I absolutely love Justin’s “Disclaimer’s”. How can I get a transcript of these gems?

   Yay, the disclaimers are works of arty poetry indeedy. Some are transcribed with the shownotes, but not always. Would be very nice to have a separate page of them.

   I cringed like 7 to 80 times during the bat virus reservoir story, each time Justin attempted to pronounce the word “Paramyxovirus”.
