  • Gary's insight and experience is excellent, but the audio production makes it almost unbearable to listen to. Please look at the set-up of Gary's mic to stop the wet and breathing noises.

    His expertise deserves to have enough production so that the audio doesn't detract.

  • The quality

    The quality of the episode from March 12,2024 is unlistenable. The episode skips on the end of the guest and the quality you cannot make out what the guest is saying.
