Customer Reviews
Insightful but terrible sound
Hello really want to listen to all these episodes but the sound quality is really poor. Please can ypu look into this. Thank you
Great point of views poor sound
Hi
I listen to these podcasts weekly. All the topics are extremely relevant to my work and inspire my thinking. However quality of volume is poor. It is very hard to understand parts of the content even on full volume especially when you compare to what else is out there. Hence the pod cast usually looses value for me mid way.
Thanks
TA.
