4.8 out of 5 stars from 70 ratings
  • Interesting if you can hear it

    The content is interesting but the volume is way too low and often Tom is even quieter than his guest (this last one was better)

  • It's great...but..

    I love this , the pod is amazing and insightful and has some of my favorite creators on it (shout out to mia) but tom's audio levels in the interviews are so quiet , i would give it a full 5/5 stars if he were just a little bit louder. i know this is just a technical issue , so that's why its 4/5 bc this pod is amazing!!! i just wish i could hear it better
