  • Great content, pls invest in Audio

    I love this podcast and have been listening to it for many years. However, I am so fed up with the audio experience that I ended up writing this review here, pls invest in good microphones!! Or perhaps you can do an episode on how to use AI to smoothen the audio experience. Especially when you have guests, it’s almost unbereable.
