  • Great content but bad audio quality

    Love the content and the expertise provided by the podcast. But for a professional podcast, the audio quality is below bad. This makes the podcast very difficult to consume. If you would up the microphones and the Audio quality just a bit, this podcast becomes much easier to listen to.
