Too short

I wish it was longer

Relts ,

Bite sized bonus

I listen to many podcasts, long form and short form. This one might be short, short form but I think it’s a bite sized bonus to have these stories of the climate crisis challenges and solutions...perfect to listen to when you don’t have a lot of time!

RJ-GO ,

Too short, too superficial

When the introduction and closing take longer than the thematic content, it just makes your podcast irritating.
