    I listen to this podcast regularly. A lot of helpful topics are covered by the knowledgeable guests that are invited.

    But I get turned off by the host. She just reads the questions already prepared by someone. She does not demonstrate any knowledge of what is being discussed or does not react in any way to represent how an ordinary listener might react.

    If you want to hear an example of that, listen to “The Daily” by New York Times.
