I appreciate this podcast and the vision behind it. The information and different viewpoints are not only interesting, but thought provoking. That said, the production value of it stinks. The folks behind the mics often talk over and interrupt each other. The actual room, where they record the podcast is not ideal either for the production value. A ton of echo and reverb, that it’s hard to listen to. When someone laughs or talks on top of someone else , which happens often, it hurts the ear... more
Love the ‘cast. Need it to happen more often. Record your Zoom audio, edit and add the intro music. Done! Once a month - or whenever - not bueno. Let’s have more and more regular. Like an audio bran muffin!
I think this could be so informative but when everyone is speaking at the same time, it’s frustrating as a listener.
Hard to follow when 4 people are animatedly talking into the same mic at the same time. Latest episode was in a bar with distracting background noise and conversation. Someone get these folks some $ for better production values!
This is just perfect for someone like me. I do not have a background in politics or political science and this is a great resource for me to understand a lot more about what is going on in washington. I feel like the information i am getting is certainly opinionated, which is great, but not biased or loaded with language that leaves me feeling manipulated, like the news often does...
