Pls sort your production out

I love this podcast but the production seems to be getting worse and worse. Why am I hearing two Leila’s at the same time? Why do the volume levels continue to be off during each episode?

Keep the great reviews coming but pls so some basic checks for mic + audio levels before recording and double-check it afterwards cos the quality sometimes makes it unbearable to listen to this.

Great independent film podcast

Really enjoyed listening to this podcast from the beginning to now. Its greatest strength is its diverse range of critics with so much passion and interest in film - it really gets me excited about films I’ve not seen much coverage of elsewhere. Plus thoughtful insight into the latest blockbusters.

The sound!

I can not listen to this podcast. It’s like speaking to someone on a mobile while on a train. The sound is so bad I regularly just switch off after the first few minutes. Please just use you phones to record an audio track while your on the zoom call. Also, stop using AirPods.
