  • Professionalize it

    Sounds like Ed is speaking through a potato connected to a forty foot length of twine running from my neighbour’s treehouse. Also the episode startup is way too slow, between ads, idle chatter, and administrivia. Listen to NPR Up First: four catchy notes and then boom, headlines. And professionally produced audio.

    The format of this podcast seems to have changed such that the two hosts spend way too much time talking about nothing e.g., whether or not they like watching professional sports or not and the anniversary of the community centre in Scarborough. I couldn't listen long enough to get to what was stated to be the subject matter of the podcast!

  • Enjoy this podcast

    Just discovered this when I went looking for Edward Keenan’s column on Ford and the Greenbelt. Very much like this one with Keenan and Teital.
