  • Why not just read the whole script

    Presumably anyone who is listening to this pod has watched the episodes and doesn’t need every line from the script rehashed or actually read verbatim. These episodes could be half the length.

    The hosts for some reason give every other character a pass except for Harper. Not sure why they seem to have such an axe to grind with her but since it’s just a difference of opinion I wouldn’t count that as one of the reasons why I find this pod a waste of time. Just mentioned it bc I find it a bit od... more

  • Holy Fast Talkers!

    This podcast is very helpful in helping me understand all the finance stuff in Industry. But they talk so fast I actually checked to see if I accidentally had it on 1.5 speed. 🤣

  • Not for me

    They give all the characters a pass except for Harper. These women describe Harper as being a psychopath, which is completely off base. I don’t like that at all.
