Valenti is so quiet if I have my speakers at normal volume. Valenti is a classic sports talk radio guy who can go on and on without saying much that’s insightful. Boomer carries the show in my opinion. Not great chemistry between them

The show itself is great. I have no qualms with the show’s content. I have an issue with the show volume. If I set my volume to hear boomer, valenti blows my ear drums out. If I set my volume to comfortably hear valenti, boomer sounds like a whisper. Doesn’t matter if it is in my vehicle or AirPods.

Love the show. Actually wish it were longer than 45min. Excellent chemistry and love Valenti but dear Jesus PLEASE fix the audio shift between commercials and the show. It's 2025 and it's the only show I've ever heard with this crazy difference. Commercials blow my ears out because I have to turn the show up so loud
Apple Podcasts3Hel!Raz0RUnited Statesa year ago - I love the show but PLEASE FIX THE AUDIO
I love the show, I listen every week. I was listening to the most recent episode with my wife, on a car ride & she was irate about the audio. This is too big of a show to sound like this. Please look into this.
