I used to love this podcast, but the catastrophising is now too much.
Why should I bother listening to something so depressing?
It’s become an audio version of the BRFCS forum.
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!
The original & best Rovers podcast🔵⚪️💙
Lucky enough to have been a guest on this pod.
The guys work incredibly hard to produce the pod.
Not too waffley, nice and balanced between being honest & optimistic wthout going too far over the top.
