  • Background sounds

    I couldn’t get through the first four minutes of an episode because a cell phone was constantly chiming like it received a text message. It was the same tone I use on my phone so it was especially distracting and jarring for just trying to listen peacefully to a podcast. Why would you not silence your phone while recording a podcast?!?
