- Audio volume
Please fix the audio, it’s softer than all the shows I listen to, then the commercial comes on and it’s too loud. Don’t have this issue with other podcasts.

Please fix the audio volume, it’s softer than all the shows I listen to so I need to change the volume way up to be able to listen, but it hurts my ears when the commercial comes on and when next podcast starts playing before I had chance to change the volume.
Love the show otherwise and is a supporter.

Apple Podcasts5Heather BoUnited States4 years ago - My favorite podcast
I have been listening to AirTalk for over a decade and the show has continued to impress me all these years. Larry is one of the most level-headed, intelligent, and gracious hosts you can find. Larry avoids bias and presses both sides of the issue. Years ago the time slot changed and I was not able to listen on my commute but I now listen to the podcast everyday and I contribute dollars to KPCC quarterly as my gratitude for the quality programming of AirTalk. -Matthew, Windsor Square, Los Angele... more
Apple Podcasts5kickintheeyeUnited States4 years ago - Let down
I remember a time when NPR was one of the few places left where you could get unbiased news information that showcased both sides of an argument, sadly that is no longer the case. Larry Mantle is a very fair host, he is always calm and collected, and very knowledgeable. My issue is that the guests they have come on his shows are disproportionately left leaning which unfortunately is the new trend among most media outlets and it’s truly disheartening to know that NPR now fits into that category.
