This podcast is really interesting with fascinating facts, unfortunately One presenter is much louder than the others with a really grating voice.
Turn it up to hear the guys then the woman yells in your ear. :(
Rachel lacks knowledge. Her segments are elementary and show her very shallow knowledge of her topic.
Victoria smacks her lips making it very difficult to listen.
Kirk is saving grace of show. He’s knowledgeable, funny and voice is easy to listen to.
Show would benefit from them finding balance of banter and info.
I like what you’re doing here in general but very rough around the edges.
Always a fun and educational listen!
