The show has good perspective and great guests, but the audio is intolerable. Jeff seems to fade into mumbling frequently, and the interstitial audio is often much louder than the talking. It’s painful to listen.
I love the mix of expert interviews and weekly news review on Mondays (plus links to said articles in the show notes!). Keep up the great work.
I’m new to the show and I’m loving it so far. Particularly interesting in what midsize cities are doing to improve equity.
This Podcast is a must- listen for anyone interested in public transport, from professionals to hobby enthusiasts like me. Jeff Woods is a kind and calm host, the quality is very good. I would love a little more content from around the world but am happy with the broad perspective offered on various topics.
