  • Content 5 stars- Audio 2 stars

    I really enjoy the topics, host and guest speakers however the audio is unlistenable. I am not sure if it’s a mic issue but before every speaker, you can hear their inhale almost as a very loud distracting gasp. I have to turn off every episode that it happens on. Which is a shame because the content is so great. I listen to a lot of content and have not heard this on other pods.
