  • Audio quality is terrible

    It’s 2020. Up the bitrate, invest in a decent audio interface, some decent mics, and end this terrible audio quality once and for all.

    Even remote callers can use Zoom and Skype, which have way better quality audio than this. Are you using landlines?

    Seriously guys this takes away from what could be a great podcast.
