Customer Reviews
Informative and Well Researched
Love learning with this podcast. Long time listener.
Only one reason it’s not 5stars: about 25% of the podcast is ads. That’s a lot for an 11min podcast! Fully appreciate the necessity of ads, but the ratio is really high.
Would love to be able to listen to the first couple hundred podcasts on iTunes.
Eating it up!!!
Love having this podcast in my repertoire. Monica is so well informed and is not beholden to any large corporation so I feel that her research represents an unbiased opinion. She covers so many topics and issues - an invaluable resource.
Talks too fast to be useful
I used to really enjoy this podcast - now she talks so fast (recent episode on fibre is a good example) - too hard to understand. Podcast has become a waste of time.
