And yes, my zune will play mp3's, but in order to download it in the UK you have to buy quicktime pro...so I have subscribed to the biography show in a small, student effort to give you enough funds to chip away at the pedestal on which Microsoft sits...and maybe just maybe my £.53 can support a starving historian... David: Thanks for answering. At the risk of sounding incredibly nerdy...I've read your books, I've cited your work in my essays, how cool to talk to you! You've got a history groupie :) Keep up the good work and I look forward to Caesar 101 or whatever you and Cameron decide to turn your very able hands to. "Vive l'Empereur!" Cameron:

Don't know when I'll be in London next, but its one of our favorite places to visit, so you may yet have a chance to toast the Emperor with me! Glad you like the show and hope you are finding the Bio show good as well. And yes, Cogitator, we do plan to do a Julius Caesar 101, though I doubt it will go on as long as Napoleon has! David Mandy,

I didn't know Napoleon was listed in the Zune directory either! My contact at Microsoft who runs the Zune store tells me they are WAY behind trying to add podcasts. But I'll see what I can do! The Zune won't play a normal mp3? HI Mandy! I didn’t know Napoleon was listed in the Zune directory either!

I've followed the entire series and it was wonderful to have such an interesting take on such an amazing man. But...I would love to be able to get the biography show on my ZUNE and it's not currently listed as the Napoleon 101 Podcast is. I'm a bit gutted! Is there any movement towards listing it on Zune? Or is one of the files you provide convertible to play in that fomat? Keep up the amazing work, and if you're in London stop in for a pint of REAL ale :) Or Medicine...we've got loads of that, too!

Hey Cameron please let David "ramble" a bit. I enjoy his asides and stories and always learn something from them. Also, I heard you guys are considering doing a podcast on Caesar similar to the Napoleon show. I hope that is true! I am loving “The Biography Show”. Hey Cameron please let David “ramble” a bit.
