  • Enjoyed! Sound quality interfered with hearing everything

    I listened to the Cloudy Donut episode & learned a lot, but I had to strain to hear everything clearly. I had the most difficulty understanding the woman host, then the male, but heard Zewidi fine if I didn’t run the shower.

  • Content is helpful!

    Content is great, BUT PLEASE equalize your mics. It makes it super difficult to listen when one has to keep turning volume up and down because the man speaks so SO softly and the woman speaks so loudly. Only started the podcast so hopefully you figured it out..

  • Vocal fry is a choice

    I’m on number 4. The only thing that I can’t stand is this woman’s vocal fry! It’s ok to be “like a total valley girl ok” but to add the annoying vocal fry to the end of a sentence is like scratching a chalkboard! Especially if you do podcasts lol!
