  • Great content, can’t hear host

    Host volume is always so low, making it a struggle to listen as the guest volume becomes much louder. Months ago this was not an issue. Sadly can not handle the volume inconsistencies with the host and guest so I am unfollowing.

  • Too hard to hear host

    Topics are great, guests are knowledgeable, but the difference in volume between host and guest is so frustrating! Either you can’t hear the host or the guest is breaking your ear drums.

  • I can barely hear the host's question

    I like the content. However, the unbalanced sound volume between the host and guest speaker is so off. It might hurt your hearing when the guest starts to talk if you use headphones when increasing the volume to hear the host.
