Australia5 years ago - Quality of sound is so poor it doesn’t matter how good the content is
The quality of production is so very poor. The sound is so bad that it is not possible to listen to this podcast unless you are in a library with the sound on max and noise cancelling headphones. Such a shame because the conversations promise much but delivery is absent. Is it a problem of lack of finance to support this podcast?

Singapore6 years ago - Agree with IISS Fan
The content is barely audible at maximum volume in a perfectly quiet environment, even with Bose noise-canceling earphones!
