and I may adjust if it improves with age, but so far there’s at least one person in each episode almost or completely ruining it. You have: the dude who says “like” constantly; the bloke who sounds like he was told his dog died before recording, so he smoked a bunch of indica then popped some ‘ludes equaling no energy or enthusiasm, and finally the guy who incessantly says, “to me, for me” and “for me, personally.” Sometimes, no joke, he goes “To me, at least for me, personally...” It’s obvious you’re expressing your own opinions and not those of the neighbors across the street. Add in the really annoying, albeit prevalent in most podcasts, habit of saying, e.g.: “Viggo Mortensen’s character,” every..single..time. You could cut ten minutes by establishing the characters’ names then using them, or after the first time say “Viggo” if you’re too lazy to learn them or don’t respect your listeners enough to presume we can follow along. How anyone with a developed sense of humor couldn’t love Sean and Hot Fuzz is beyond me, but yanks often need their comedy spoon fed to them with broad strokes, and most likely the one laconic, zombie-like co-host referenced above isn’t the target audience, regardless. 😉😅
