  • Love the show, hate the sound

    We love listening to your podcast on road trips. Great content, entertaining presentations. The only negative is the sound; it is so inconsistent. Large and Vibbs are good, but Anne is very hard to hear. If she talks a lot then we have to turn up the volume to hear her, once Large speaks again it’s uncomfortably loud. Please, please fix.

  • Great Content - Inconsistent Audio

    I love this show and the way Large presents information - but i have never listened to a more inconsistent audio. Some episodes I have to double the volume compared to other podcast, while other episodes I need to constantly turn the volume up and down depending on who is talking to hear them all to the point of skipping the episode all together. Please fix
