Noooo. Don't quit! I've listened to everyone of your podcasts many more than once. They have all been very witty. I've shared several of them with friends. Thank you for making them. You will be missed.

thanks for the casts

This guy must be a college history professor or teacher of the classics. This is a no nonsense factual (which I like), without a lot if warm and fuzzies, podcast about interesting everyday stuff. Very informative.
