A misophone‘s nightmare

The content is fine, but Hamza and Martin Samuel need to sort their wet voice out. It honestly makes it unlistenable at times. The mouth noises are excruciating
Worth a listen

Good insight and analysis, variety of contributors to this podcast. Definitely worse since Martin Samuel joined, sadly. He takes 5 minutes to convey 30 seconds of information, and no, I don’t need to hear about Terry Venables again. Alyson Rudd has become a caricature of herself with her biased hot takes and counter arguments just for the sake of it. Gregor is a good guest but lacking as presenter. Jonathan Northcroft is great - hugely under utilised. Tom Roddy and Ian Hawkey are both very good. Cascarino generally quite insightful.
Yawn

Most recent show spent first 10 mins discussing the song American Pie. Seriously…? This is supposed to be about football.
A very odd podcast
20 Aug
Takes skill to combine being dull with tabloid takes providing little to no insight. So many of the guests are just stuck in their ways yelling at a cloud.
