It’s hard to hear and listen to the people talking with the awful music in the background; I can’t continue this podcast
Love the content but come on…hire a real person as the host. Major disappointment.
I love the show, but way too many commercials. I think 6 per break. And there are at least 2 breaks. So for a show of 30 min, 10 min are commercials.
I love this podcast but can you get it ad free I do not like people trying
to sell me stuff. Would have gave five stars but for the ads. Yes I’ll pay for ad free.
