  • Mandy Weiner

    Stand-in presenter Ismail introduces guest in such a stressful way that it is not possible to listen what he is say but rather how he is saying it, it’s embarrassing.

  • Segments and full show in single feed

    The one issue I have is that they publish snippets of the show per topic.. and occasionally the entire show or parts that include other parts.

    These repeats annoy me a lot. Guys stick to one strat.. full show or topic based snippets.. but not both in one feed!
