I will be otherwise occupied with certain sporting activities but I may catch that one later on the playback facility.

Same here but with gardening duty unfortunately. And I was just thinking I might have to get the Reich and some Glass the next time I am pouring my funds into Amazon.... Must be some way to listen via podcast to this program later?
