    I'm very surprised by how this became one of my absolute favorite episodes 😂

    God I love these podcasts! So interesting but never without a smile. Carry on the great work, much needed in these too serious times! 😍

    Another excellent broadcast. I thought, however, there was no need to mention that Dan Brown was schooled at Phillips Exeter Academy (known as PEA). We prefer to keep that a secret. - Robert Plumb, PEA 1972

    Why weren’t our history lessons at school like this?

    I thought that the study of symbols is called semiotics.

    absolutely riveting and funny. Infinite regress of conspiracy driven marketing 😂

    4:32 I read it in 2003 and couldn't put it down. The prose was terrible but I was just transported from one place I knew to another, having read Henry Lincoln's stuff. The only place mentioned that I have not been inside (walked past s few times) was the Masonic Temple in London...

    I loved The DaVinci Code - rollicking good fun.... It was a great page turner.

    Read 'The Holy Blood and The Holy Grail' back in the 1980s. Tedious doesn't do it justice. The same authors, or two of the three, can't remember, then brought out a book about the mystery of Rudolf Hess. Equally as tedious. Should have learned my lesson.

    Grrr. I've heard a lot of people mention the trinity and other words such as trinitarian but nobody ever explains anything. My suspiscion is that actually nobody understands the trinity and everyone skips over it to save embarrassment. What say you?

    I read the first third of the book during the hype to see what it was all about, but had to give it up out of boredom. Just such a bland and overrated book. Most overhyped thing I tried to read since Primary Colors (a much "celebrated" book by a then-anonymous author about a faux-Bill Clinton), which was also atrociously dull and I had to give up on midway through. I swear this isn't the norm for my reading habits.
