Some audio issues to consider

Love the podcast! But I’m wondering if you could remove the heartbeat sound from the intro part of the background soundtrack? For those of us with audio/anxiety issues it can be really distracting. I find myself listening to it and starting to panic a bit. Aside from that, love the show and keep it up!
Love the podcast but confused about one thing

This is a great podcast and is well researched. I’ve learned new things about cases id heard many times. The host is a great speaker and is always understandable and clear. My only question is at the end Vanessa says to come back next time and we’ll decode the episode together. What does that mean? Because she never talks about the episode again. So I’m confused. That’s my only question. Lol.
