  • Just exercise some self control and make it shorter?

    Respect your audience and make a PLAN for the show and then EDIT your rambling. Just because you like talking to each other doesn’t mean that’s useful content. Exercise some restraint. It’s not a feature there are many “rat holes,” it’s a bug. Will listen again when the run times get < 1 hour.

  • Cut out the politics

    Great informative podcast that discusses a whole lot of interesting things. Then you ruin it with people whining about Twitter/Musk, and other political stuff. Final straw was the condescending complaints about the word 'master' not being politically correct. Unsubscribed.
