  • Shame multi-billion funders can’t afford good mics

    Otherwise good podcast, but crazy that the cost of capital episode sounds like it was recorded in 1930

  • Good content

    I appreciate the depth of information coverage. My only criticism is audio quality. I listen to a lot of podcasts, and Currents has noticeably worse audio quality.

  • Great content. Need better audio/recording

    The content is really good. Please figure out audio quality as it is less than par quality. It applies specifically to hosts.
