Mentioning sponsors too much.

Selected the episode on prenatal genetic testing. The episode is 27 min long but the actual content about PGT won’t start until 14 min in.

Too much promotions

Too much promotions of products like the guests’ book. ‘Yeah we have the ideas but you can find out from this book’.
