Many thanks for this last in the current series of your delightful 'Chiff Chat' podcasts, Ben: you are always a good tonic for those with a healthy interest in all things organ, and also the best medicine when a safe dose of organ irreverence is required. Steven was an interesting guest who exuded old-school authority (and charm), so hard luck on those who find improvisation a nightmare and transposition discombobulating . . . they might find their calling elsewhere. The magic moment in this podcast? Of course, it has to be the Latin stop, 'Nole me tangere', or as your mother would never be persuaded to repeat in German: 'Fuchsschwank' (BWV 1121, I think, but wrongly attributed). B R A V O !

Excellent podcast, i enjoyed listening, nice structure, and overall very interesting and entertaining!
Nice podcast!
Agree these are great
I've enjoyed every episode and would certainly listen to season 2
I heartily second that - really great organ podcasts. There must be plenty more organists to got at.
I am genuinely sorry that this is the last. These have been amongst the best things on UA-cam.
Get better soon Ben - as a Scot - I suggest a single malt.
