[Update: In this weeks Lynda ad I asked for user experience feedback to see how people were using the service. This was meant to be in the same vein as asking for Audible book recommendations, but it went too far toward soliciting straight-up product testimonials. So I've taken it out. Reverse thrusters, replot course, full speed ahead. --Mike]

Do we get paid if we give a Lynda testimonial? That's how ads are supposed to work, no? (Not trying to be harsh. I just think that ask was a teensy bit of a misstep. Commercials at the beginning, fine because they keep you going. Asking us to help sell stuff is very slightly icky)
Anyway. Your break will give you the chance to write all those episode on the rest of the Napoleonic era, right? Right?? No? Damn. :(

I am not a native speaker, but there is something strange about your last sentence of the podcast.
The Duncan family already has my everlasting gratitude for working on/allowing the creation of these fantastic podcasts, but I think in the context you meant the opposite :P

Just want to say thank you for these podcasts. They are very entertaining, and I look forward to going back and listening to the American Revolution series.

Thanks for the Podcast so far, I really enjoyed listening to this one in particular on the french revolution.
I look forward to more revolutions. *crosses fingers for an Irish one*
