  • Remember when you hated btc

  • Good info, not my favorite to listen to.

    I struggle with David’s podcasting voice. His tempo, his inflections, his tone, to me, make everything sound both “really important” and “really mundane” simultaneously. Also, the fact that his ads have no backgound music, and sound exactly like his monologue is really annoying. The info he shares is fine, I just don’t enjoy listening to much of it very often.
