I did put a rough number on it but I must be pretty close. I reckon it might sound a bit rude which It wasn't intended to be.

As for the podcast, I was proposing it as a gateway into this field, not as a source to substantiate my general point although it does. My point is otherwise based on first hand experience and a large body of anecdotal evidence.
