Comments and constructive criticism (about the content and the recording) welcome.

Unfortunately, the quality on this was so poor that I decided I wouldn't subject you to it. Instead, I've transcribed my waffling in text, which is below. I hope the next eight podcasts won't require such extreme measures!

Podcast #1 - 16/10/13

Last year, I began an experiment in attempting to save myself some time (and for other improving reasons) to swap over from written reviews to oral/aural ones.  The recording schedule has, unfortunately, been haphazard and my technique and quality variable.  However, nothing will improve until I start editing and posting these, so let's give them a try.
