Robert ZuchWell-informed,
thoughtful, and supported by reliable references. Good presenter, happy to listen to him again in future.

Ricky LamarHe was a good relaxed speaker who spoke plainly to the lowest denominator.(me)
Topic was off the brief of 'skeptic', but still interestingly enough to get me there.
Can we get him back and others of similar 'ilk' more often?
