  • Cannot deal with the eating sounds

    The hosts, guests, and discussions are generally excellent, but I cannot deal with the eating noises. How could they not be aware of how gross it is to hear people smack, chew, slurp, etc? It is unbearable. I often have to abandon otherwise great convos because of the eating sounds. Is there something that can be done about this — maybe in the recording and/or post-production?
