This podcast not only talks about sound but uses it in amazing ways! Love this podcast and it’s amazing for kids!
And I don’t like to talk about myself, but I talk about myself and my company and my other company constantly. Oh and I’m the host. I don’t like to talk about myself but I love hearing my name so much I made an episode about other people named Dallas Taylor. I’m Dallas Taylor.
This dude is a bit of a turd, but when he’s not talking about himself, the show is great.
20k Hz has changed the way that I interact with the world. I am an architect and have a spatial sense of what kinds of environments I prefer. Quality of light has always been a passion of mine as well. But through listening to this podcast, I now have a vocabulary for the types of sonic environments I prefer. Thanks for broadening my senses, Dallas & the 20k HZ team!
I stumbled across this podcast a few years ago, and it has become my family’s favorite. There are so many fascinating topics that I didn’t even know enough about to care until I listened to the episode. I love that we can listen as a family.
Joanne makes no secret of her hate for the trans community and she actively puts her vast fortune toward promoting their extermination. I consider the HP radio play ep to be little more than an overpriced commercial for her garbage and you’ve outlived your time in my pod catcher.
