- Great content - delivery needs work
Great content.
But why do the hosts keep talking over each other so much? I had wanted to hear joe Aston talk but he could hardly get a word in!
And I get that you are both well connected but the conversation descends into a **** measuring contest too often on who knows whom/what etc.
Please interrupt each other less and keep up the great content.
The content is really quite interesting but the delivery is grating.
