Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 39 ratings
  • Strong analysis poor execution

    While analysis is good and to the point, it is evident that most participants are reading and that is annoying. Secondly, several participants do not speak English clearly or in an audible way that makes sense.

  • Good material, annoying listening to them read the script

    The material in these podcasts is really good. The delivery is pretty poor though, you can tell they are just reading compliance approved scripts and it is not in anyway conversational or enjoyable listening.
