- Five star but, Sound quality issues!
I say this with the utmost respect as to your expertise and the info you share. Can you please upgrade your recording booth SOUND quality so it doesn’t seem like you are recording inside a tin can? I find it very distracting and I’m sure others do too!

United Statesa month ago - Clicking
It is very difficult to listen to the podcast or anything else when someone is clicking a pen or snapping a rubber band or whatever is making the background noise on episode 6. I had to stop listening and stop caring what was being said. This has happened before and there are lots of plant podcasts that are cleaner with their technology.
Apple Podcasts3geoindianaUnited States2 months ago - Miss the old format
The previous format was much more helpful because it described what plants looked like and where and how they grew. It introduced me to a lot of great plants. But I don’t get that info in the new format. Plus, the sound quality is terrible, and the guests sometimes interact more personally with each other in ways that aren’t helpful or interesting. I miss the old format with Danielle and Carol (and Steve)!
Apple Podcasts3MackPlantUnited States2 months ago - New Format isn’t Great
I’ve enjoyed this podcast for a number of years. The recent change with one host doing interviews is not great. Additionally, the experts picked for the topic of that particular podcast should probably not start their interview being sanctimonious and berating the topic. Most recent episode with “experts” discussing coveted plants was unbearable when the one person from Chicago would not shut up about how she didn’t like the topic and was incredibly condescending about it. That’s not the experts... more
Apple Podcasts3CynicalXerUnited States5 months ago - Need a better microphone
I would give this podcast five stars if it wasn’t for the sound, Please, either get a better microphone, or have somebody edit your podcast to even out the sound. Sometimes it is ear piercing to listen to when one person talks quietly, and the next person starts laughing. I would think that having been around for as long as you have been and what a wonderful quality magazine you have that you would be able to make this happen.
