Good topics
I really enjoy the interviews and the people picked and the topics are always interesting.
However, can the interviewer, I believe his name is Tan Chun Han, please allow the speakers to finish before interrupting? It is sometimes very jarring to hear a few voices at the same time, and I believe that it can come across quite rude
Great Podcast - Easy Accessible
