the content of this podcast is awesome. i wish, however, there was some kind of audio engineering to diffuse the persistent and overwhelming sibilance. the “s” sounds from the host are too much for my system - and i think they could be modified with the right audio engineering or equipment modification. it would be a worthwhile adjustment and would definitely command 5 full stars at that point!
