It's rare to find a podcast that can strike such a perfect balance between being informative, entertaining, and soothing all at once.

    As for the worst aspects of this podcast, there really aren't many to speak of. Some listeners might find it challenging to stay awake until the end due to the soothing nature of the stories and Professor Atwood's voice. However, even if you do fall asleep before reaching the conclusion, each episode is still enjoyable in its own right.
