  • Content good, delivery awful

    Please Laura use your normal speaking voice! Pretend you’re talking to an adult! This sing song librarian voice makes the podcast unlistenable. I like your content on Best of Both Worlds so I keep trying this podcast but the condescending phony voice is insufferable

  • No long episodes!

    There are plenty of other podcasts I can listen to for half hour episodes. The benefit of this show is its brevity. Please don’t make long episodes! Long episodes absolutely ruin my morning routine. If you insist on making them, put them in their own “Before Brunch” feed or at least on the weekends. This productivity podcast is ruining my morning routine!

  • So many ads

    Laura offers a great insight on before breakfast. I really enjoy it, but when 50% of the podcast is ads it drives me up the wall! I understand you have to make $$, but when it’s this excessive it destroys any credibility.

  • Content good

    The content is very good; however, it is hard to listen to due to the host. She uses a sing song inflection with awkward pauses where there shouldn’t be pauses. It’s like she is reading to a kindergarten class.
