Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 41 ratings
  • Content vs. Style

    The content is interesting, but the audio quality is not great and there are some mouth noises/smacking sounds that need to be edited out. I wish I could listen because I like the way the information is compiled, but unfortunately my ears are too picky.
