    Fortunately I was not on my bike; I was just packing to ride home. Good thing too because I nearly fell over laughing at the whole gag about the bicycle. This is a great episode. I like the humor. Keep up the great work

    We aren't sure if a parasitology podcast would be of interest – so thanks for the feedback. We will definitely do it and let the listeners decide if it's useful.

    Dear Prof Racaniello,'
    First of all I would like to say ” I really appreciate about this PodCast of This Week in Virology, after I listened to your PodCast about Viral Genome now I could understand how the replication of viral genome occurs, unfortunately I could not get the transcript of this episode.

    Best Regards

    Yunus
