You may remember that I had this podcast on my sidebar for a long time. I will be forever grateful to them for guiding me through Till We Have Faces after I had been unable to even like it my first two tries. (I now agree it is Lewis's best, ahead of The Great Divorce.) But in the early seasons they took five minutes of chitchat at the beginning of every episode, which grew to ten minutes and then twelve. It's not that I couldn't reliably just jump ahead, but that landing at eight minutes they sounded like they were just about to get into content, and at ten minutes, and eleven. The irritation was not worth it.
But it is still suggested now and again on my phone, and the topic was going to be Till We Have Faces at the Annual Petoskey CS Lewis Conference, which I have considered going to the last few years.
At 22 minutes of talking about what beer or tea they were having or chatting with the guests about how they had all met, I gave up. Still not recommended.
