Super frustrating hearing the hosts blab over the guests so much. I get that it’s a conversation, but straight up interrupting an interesting guest like Dubois constantly was just nothing to listen to. Sorry.
Would be an interesting time to hear some dialogue. Doesn’t seem to be much hope. Another fickle program that is perhaps too cautious about speaking to the moment?

Nerds of all shapes and sizes talk techno. You’re gonna like it.
