    Why should I bother listening to something so depressing?

    It’s become an audio version of the BRFCS forum.

  • Audio levels

    Great content, but the varying audio levels/quality on 22nd March were infuriating. One microphone massively loud, another contributor difficult to hear. Turning the up, and then down again continually took the edge off!
