Customer Reviews
Shorten the intro music, change the feed display
The BBC's In Our Time is the gold standard, so four stars here is a great ranking. There are two things I hope they'll do. The intro music is kind of overdone, the BBC just starts talking. I prefer the BBC's approach. Too many podcasts have overly dramatic intros. Also, the podcast feed lists the name of the interviewee in the title, and the topic in the description. This does not display well on the iPod. I'd prefer if the topic were brief and thus viewable on the iPod, and the interviewee name was in the description.
wonderful and enlightening
This podcast is excellent. Robert Harrison brings together the most intelligent and fascinating guests to discuss the arts and their ramifications in our daily lives. It provides fabulous insights not only into various aspects of history, philosophy, and art, but also humanity at large.
Thank you for the extra podcast!!
Someone listened when I wrote last week that I was going to miss my favorite podcast series.... We were treated with an extra episode!! Please return soon...listening to "Entitled Opinions" transports me to different places, opens new worlds and gives me new insights...a fresh perspective. Thank you for making my world more diverse, for giving my mind a stretch and for helping me to escape to places I did not know existed.
