  • Too much fluff

    The podcast itself has useful content, and I have no problem with short episodes. However, approximately half the podcast content is either advertising or self-promotion. This becomes annoying very quickly with the shorter episodes when hearing the same ad 20 times in half an hour.

  • Too short repeated content

    So I appreciate the smaller bite sized content, but producing 2 episodes with the exact same content under a different episode title, is sad and doesn’t confer authority. If you are truly an expert in this field, you would give multiple different examples, dive into nuisances, etc. plus the intro music - can’t hear him actually speak during the music.
