Canada5 months ago - Great conversations, horrible audio quality
As a game developer myself, I enjoyed their conversations and insights. However it’s basically ruined by the audio quality of one of the hosts (Mike?). He is very echo-y, hard to understand, and it contrasts poorly with the other hosts (who sound great). At first I thought it was just an issue with the specific episode I started with, but nope, his audio is always bad. So it’s hard to recommend this podcast in its current state.
