Customer Reviews
I want more…
…of this pod and amazing chocolate! What happened to the Stettler Chocolate link?! I’d love to couple recommending this series with a gift pack of chocolate for my close friends! (And I want some for me, too!)
I loved the storytelling, dynamic audio landscape, and the people. What a great idea; and so well executed. Thank you.
Very well done
A+ chocolate content, maybe the best chocolate content available honestly.
Favorite Podcast!
This podcast has everything: adventure, history, botany, environmentalism, anthropology, revenge, inspiration, etc.
Would love another season to hear about newer developments, updates, or other regions of the world.
