  • Great content overall

    Quality content. Please get rid of the country music opening. I live in Arizona even, but it’s the reason I stopped listening to the podcast. Was hoping it changed when I tried listening again 3 years later.

  • Great except the reading

    Great content and audio quality, but listening to them read the prepared script is a little painful.

    Just try to chat about the summaries in a more casual tone.

    Cochrane summaries are the best!
