  • I want to like this podcast! But don’t, heres why

    Bottom line: Its TOO short. A few thoughts on this: First, you cant expect to give a thorough background of technical material like hydraulics when the average show is like 12-15minuts of content. There is usually 2-4mins of intro and advertising already. Its just too short. Second, its just silly to invite these highly experienced guests on, who are subject experts, and then publish a 12minute interview...I would feel like my time was wasted if I was being interviewed honestly.

  • Good stuff, audio volume difference

    Great content, though the audio volume is off from Drew and the guest speaker. May want to check on that.
