Friends, sorry about the sound quality in this episode. I bought a new microphone and I still can’t set it up properly. This episode about Dostoevsky became very long, and I really didn’t want to record it again. I tried to improve the sound during editing, but unfortunately I couldn’t make the volume as loud and clear as in the previous episodes. I hope you still enjoy the episode and find it interesting.
