  • A little QA would go a long way

    Love the actual show, but the audio is incredibly hit or miss. Sometimes it’s the wrong show, sometimes the audio sounds like it’s coming out of sparklers, or the audio segments are completely out of order.

    Can whoever uploads the show, ya know, actually listen to 30 seconds before they click the button?
