  • Good pod

    One of the better SAFC pods, but the volume is often far too low and if there is any other noise, this one is hard to hear. Other than that, a good listen always with good, unbiased views

  • SORT THE SOUND OUT

    I’d like to listen to this regularly but the sound is so bad I can’t. Had to turn the last one off as it was inaudible.
