  • Wtf is up with the strange ads?!

    The content of this first episode I am listening to is fascinating and well told, but loud, song-based ads keep interrupting in the middle of words with no warning. The volume is so mismatched too, that I rewound 3 times trying to figure out what was happening. The narrator’s voice kinda goes in and out as well. Why is this so poorly produced and edited?

    While these are well produced they contain too many incorrect assumptions, and base assumptions upon assumptions…too much inaccurate information
