  • One of the best!

    Highlands Bunker is one of the best podcasts to stay up to date with local politics here in Delaware. Love all the interviews with activists, candidates and leaders throughout our state. If I had to leave feedback, I would say audio could use a bit more processing. Throughout the podcast I have to constantly increase and decrease the audio levels. A simple compressor on the master audio file would fix it in no time. Looking forward to you guys creating more content in the future!
