  • Response to Al’s review

    In the interests of transparency, Al’s review (the first one for this podcast) is related to a technical issue on our end that occurred with our first few episodes that cropped up again in our most recent episode with the Nationals’ assistant GM. We are working to ensure that this won’t happen again and appreciate the sentiment that our content was interesting.
