  • Quality show

    Both hosts are very knowledgeable about the subjects they discuss. The information they provide is done in a way that you can follow along if you are not familiar with the subject. I really liked that there was not as much Gaga that you would normally experience in a new podcast (don’t go off topic often, don’t talk over each other). The sound quality is fantastic and the show is very well edited. Can’t way to hear more!

  • Leveled all the way up!

    Two things stick out about this show that make it absolutely wonderful right from the get go! The flawless audio is a breath of fresh air for a DIY podcast especially on their very first episode! Secondly, the relationship between the two hosts and how they complement each other very well. The content will have you sold and is though out and put together well! You won’t be disappoints by adding them to your podcast rotation!
