Keep it up!
I read through some of the comments about sound quality and filler words and, yes, I agree that sometimes the audio quality isn't there and I am certainly in no position to comment on "ums" as I can use those more than anyone!

I really enjoy listening to karate cafe, I like listening to martial artists talk about their experiences, especially since it is different from my own.
