Great content, but Apple and Podbean need the technical work right away

Andrew Schneider, composer

I am liking whatever I can hear about these episodes, and these persons provide wonderful insight. However, I wish they would get the show on Stitcher as soon as possible. The reason is that if I am obliged to stop the episode in the middle on Apple podcasts or park mean it is impossible to restart the episode later because of those podcasts technical issues.
