Great podcast

Interesting stories and people!

Update: lovely stories - thank you for ditching that theme song

Update - now that theme song is gone, it’s practically perfect.

——-

Lovely stories completely ruined by the obnoxious theme song. Anxiety inducing and totally mismatched to the gentle storytelling of this pod. Trying to punish those of us who drop off with a loud unpleasant wake up perhaps? Yeah, nah.

Lose the background sounds

Cannot deal with the over-produced background music/sounds. Absolutely distracting and makes it hard to focus and listen. A shame because the stories read to be interesting in the bio but there just to much going on with the audio
