Suggest you put in people that actually know what they are talking about to host this show
Inept insertion of ads within the broadcast one loses the train of thought when slammed with an F1 ad we love racing but put it in its own lane
This show is so embarrassingly bad, I cringe every time I listen to it. It is just so poorly done. I keep hoping it would get better, but it doesn’t.
Count how many times you say “you know”, “sort of”
“Kind of”, need to fix this, transcript deletes a lot of them out, very distracting
The content is strong and the topics are timely, with well rounded take on the week. However, the show is often cringy due to disruptions by the hosts frequently talking over each other and interrupting not just one another, but also the guests. More polish in the pacing and convo flow would go a long way in making this podcast better.
