Gain the knowledge you have always wanted. You could Google something but when it is explained by someone it makes it easier to understand.

Knowledge includes any subject like \"how to install an app on my phone\" or \"what's the best way to cook bacon\". I will even delve into subjects like math, civics, sports, finances and even entertainment. No subject is taboo.

So sit back and enjoy getting smarter with each podcast!
