Great Show

Great start with the first two episodes! I’m really glad there is a podcast devoted specifically to crime on campuses and some of the unique challenges specific to school-based law enforcement. Can’t wait for the next episode!

Low Production Value

You guys...I can't.

Perhaps the pelthora of high quality podcasts has made my tolerance for less polished ones very low, but I can't bring myself to listen to to podcasts like this.

From the bizarre and out of place guitar intro to the rambling incoherent sentences, "We aren't armchair academics...we're in the chair" (what does that even mean), it feels like very little effort and consideration went in to making this podcast. It feels like a couple of guys just decided to jump in the podcast bandwagon.

This podcast is in desperate need for better audio, better editing, and a new intro. Maybe it would suit the hosts to rehearse, do multiple takes, have a script.

As for me, in this attention economy, this podcast isn’t up to snuff to be worth my time.
