I enjoyed this podcast. I usually like the topics, and I like that a wide range of topics are treated as culturally important enough to examine.I didn't like the listener question format. For me, it tends to break up the flow of an episode too much, cutting it up into small bits between abrupt topic changes. This podcast is sometimes even worse, because some episodes are an extension of a discussion that has already happened in text on Petersen's web site.In the end, I ended up unsubscribing because while the discussions touched on some interesting topics, they rarely dug deep enough for my tastes.
