Australiaa month ago - Maria dominates
I really enjoy the show but Maria goes on this tangent that is too academic and quite frankly boring. I don’t want to be in an uni tutorial. She’s clearly in a Uni bubble.
The people that can convey complex ideas into simple sentences are the clever ones.
Apple Podcasts3noonafreoAustralia2 months ago - Enough is enough
This would be a great podcast except Maria really takes over & that’s all you hear. You expect a conversation between 2 people on a subject, but she just goes on & on & on. She constantly raises her voice to interrupt the other person. It was a really good show at first but I’m getting heartily sick of hearing just her voice. Thank goodness for other informative podcasts

Maria just dominates way too much, especially in the latest episode. Love Mark and your guests.
