  • Way too many short clips

    As an Irishman living in Africa, RTE is the best source for Audubon news updates, but why can it not be more streamlined. So many short repetitive clips that fill up the playing list.

    Please provide a separate option to listen back to the whole show in one podcast. Thanks.
