A New Podcast Worth The Listen!

Future Imperfect Podcast is different in so many excellent ways. Jason Kingsley, OBE, has a broad background in zoology, technology, medieval history and horse training. He has selected experts in a wide variety of specialties for these interviews and enhances them with astute questions. His guests always have something interesting to share and often a unique perspective. Looking forward to more.
