  • Interesting Guests and Great Pacing.

    I love the pacing of this podcast. And the guest selection is perfection. Matt also has some of the most interesting sounding ads in the genre, and I like that the ads are the ads, and the rest of the show isn’t just a veiled pitch for his services(most other shows in the genre are). My only wish for this show would be for Matt to intro the episodes in a more natural voice. His interview tone and pace are so good, but the intros sound forced and a little too V/O Guy.
