I have followed the work of both good writers, but they seem to be consumed by trends that are boring and have no consequence, as if they fear their own obsolescence.
Please can you get Richard to stop interrupting Marina and let her finish her thoughts. He is knowledgeable and intelligent but Marinas thoughts are valid too.
Marina and Richard are such good combo and so funny. I love being kept up to date with the latest trends and explainers of entertainment behind the scenes too. Also nice to have something fun to listen to.
This podcast could easily be so much better. Both of you need to let the other person finish their sentences before talking over the top of them. Unfortunately it’s become unlistenable.
How can a show about entertainment be so dull? It’s like Richard is a school teacher but only extracting the most mundane and inconsequential parts of a story
