I appreciate his vast perspective but by going on and on in his questions and commentary, he misses the opportunity for him and us learn more from his guests. His long windedness also makes me lose interest which is a shame because I want to hear the dialogue and learn.
Really appreciate Mr Scheer’s perspective and knowledge
Guests and Mr. Scheer’s voices are consistently at a really low volume and semi-muddy fidelity (at least the podcast version). Can something be done at the recording/mixing/post-production stage(s)? The show is excellent; it’s a pity the audio isn’t louder and clearer.
Please raise the host microphone volume so it balances with the host volume. Host too low, guest too high. Stressing the ears🙈
Otherwise great discussions and fascinating topics. Well done!
Words cannot adequately describe much I love and respect this program and its host. Thank you very sincerely and deeply for all you have done and continue to do. 🤍
