  • Too scripted

    Really good content, and very informative, but the presentation is very stiff and scripted, it comes across more like a training film than a podcast. Hope this changes because I love the content and the level of detail presented

  • Too Scripted

    This show could be good with a decent producer. It’s really wooden with two presenters that sound wooden and scripted. Constantly cutting between two speakers which kills flow, this show feels disingenuous and basic.
