James and Ria are having fun doing this podcast - they're really into the vampire genre, and this enthusiasm carries across. As a listener, you share in that fun, and you almost forget that they really know their stuff too. You're being entertained, but come away with new insights and ideas. For me, that's the strength of a podcast: if it'd be purely for information, then I'd grab a book. I listen to podcasts for relaxation, but it has to be on subjects I can get engaged with - this is not an issue at all; and while some of the books and topics discussed really are not for me, I don't mind hearing Ria and James talk about these - at all!
