  • Volume isn’t consistent

    i LOVE this podcast! listen to it everyday at work basically. the only thing i hope changes is maybe the volume Brianna is speaking at. The clips and ads are always 10x louder than Brianna. I love this podcast but it takes away from my listening experience when i constantly need to adjust the volume manually from my phone!
