At Irish Stew, our podcast episodes are lengthy. We make no apology for that, we don't think we come to grips with a person's life in 15 minutes. In truth, it is ridiculous to believe that we can do so in an hour, which is roughly the duration of time we spend with each of our guests. Hopefully you agree with this approach and for those that do agree, thank you for taking the time to listen, both John and I realize that carving out an hour is a big committment especially when you consider the number of options in podcast world!
Eric Favors' Episode
All that said, there are times when you might want to relisten to a segment or even share it with a time-strapped friend. Never fear, we have a solution to ease the way. Under the hood, we have been breaking our episodes down into chapters which you can use to drop into a particular point in the episode. The chapters roughly coincide with the questions we ask.
