  • Love this podcast - audio needs work

    The content on this podcast is excellent! However, I find the audio levels for vocals incredibly low and hard to hear for every episode. The intro music is mastered 30-40% louder than the vocals themselves, so the author definitely has a starting point to equalize the audio volume to for the content. Keep it up!

  • Excellent show covering the emerging aspects of the great programming language, Kotlin.

    This series is well worth a listen. Kotlin is a relatively new JVM language. It turns out that it’s an absolute joy to work with, and in this show one of the main Kotlin advocates from Jetbrains interviews experts from around the world about their experiences of Kotlin.
