I think that this podcast describes good features of the book and discusses clearly how a time zone from then is similar to the present time. With intentions of what the author had in mind for this book, I can tell that the difference in the time periods are understandable between each generation. It is just a matter of understanding what changed whilst many stayed the same.

Love the Law & Order gong effect lol. But, I really like how detailed you are in the recaps of the book and how well you inform your listeners of the plot and story details of the book. Even though I never read the book, I understood what you guys were talking about and your references, so well done!
