  • For the love of god fix Mikes audio!

    I enjoy the show, the back and forth banter makes me chuckle. But listening to Mike O’Hara is like trying to understand the teacher from Charlie Brown. Ether fix his audio or get him some speaking lessons

    I really like the show. One small quibble, please balance the audio between Ken and Mike. Either turn down Ken or turn up Mike. Hard to hear Mike.
