Customer Reviews
Add to list of favorites
This new podcast is one to add to list of favorites. Sarah brings a down-to-earth, conversational tone to the world of podcasts, avoiding verbal tics and repetition in her speech. Her honesty about being a slow knitter and spinner is refreshing. Hope she does add Shakespeare in some way to her broadcasts.
Listen to this!
Sarah is adding magic loop to her knitting repertoire and Shakespeare to her podcast.. Very enjoyable. Did you know he introduced "the accused" into the lingo?
An intelligent podcast!
I have so much enjoyed listening to this podcast. The content is well organized and the podcaster voice is pleasing to listen to.
The inclusion of the all things Shakespeare is informative and adds another dimension to the podcast. I truly look forward to
giving it a listen with each installment.
