  1. I like the beginning, using both voices, and also the way you interchange when imparting information.
    Lots of interesting info about Shakespeare, his poems and Elizabethan England. Thumbs up for the info about the national anthems too!
    As a listener, one can feel the passion and enthusiasm you both have for the subject, and some nice use of dry humour. I’m not too sure about the quote „England and its island“ though!
    Thanks for the plugs!
