  • Artificial and self promo

    It’s fine, you can learn something however half of each episode is just an ad on their products and it just sounds super artificial.

    Episodes are to short.

  • Love your podcast.

    Very refreshing and rich in valuable info.

That was my intention writing then. Thank you for adding confidence and reinsurance that I am on the right track. I played my songs to few people i know. Reviews are very positive. They all like them very much. I myself like them very much and listen them regularly.
