  • Overall Great

    The explanations are great. I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 due to audio quality. There is sometimes background noise. It would be nice if the presenters could take more care to record in a quiet space.

  • Sound Quality

    I love hearing Rav Yitzchak Etshalom, but his sound quality is so hit or miss. I often have to delete the podcast because the sound is so annoying. But I thirst for Rav Etshalom’s teachings. Please help Rav Etshalom maintain consistently good sound quality, as is befitting a professional podcast in honor of the Holy Torah. Thank you.
