  • SO GREAT!!!

    It’s not ai. First of all, the podcast lists the people who are narrating. Secondly, it only sounds kind of like ai because they are talking in intentionally sleep inducing voices. I’m surrounded by idiots and paranoid fools screaming about a robot uprising when the real problem is the people using ai.

  • Strong Narrator Preference

    Not a fan of the female narrators, the males are soothing while I find the women overly whispery and nearly intentionally seductive?? Very off putting and I have to skip into the episode to hear who’s narrating

    Love the topics, would really enjoy some Greek mythology or history

    Thanks

  • Poor ad/sponsor choices

    Some of the ads are excessively loud and upbeat and takes away from the relaxed state you might be in
