Chicago's Morning Answer with Dan Proft & Amy Jacobson

Of course the show itself is extremely insightful and I listen as much as I can in the morning, hoping to catch the rest with the podcast. The only problem is that the volume level of the hosts is much, much too quiet to hear clearly. In the old days I would have hooked the podcast up to an amp and added a limiter to the chain, because the rest of the audio is, to varying degrees, louder. PLEASE fix this issue, seems simple enough to remedy!

Five stars for content Volume variance is a problem, sometimes soft and need more volume on Dan and or Amy then the callers and interviews come in much louder.

UPDATE 10/14/2024 I fail to understand how the audio continues to be an issue for the flagship of this radio station. Every Monday episode begins with one or both hosts sounding as if their in a closet under blankets, clip and caller audio being higher than the hosts, etc. Tends to take until Wednesday for host mix levels and mix to get better, that’s if hosts speak into their mics. Really enjoy the program but prefer the podcast over AM signal going in and out. The audio quality varies GREATLY between Dan, Amy, callers, guests and commercials. One star is for the audio quality. Content is five stars.

Love the show. Listen to almost all of them and enjoy your fill in hosts as well. I often find it hard to hear because of the range of volume. If I have any noise in background I often miss things and have to go back to hear what I missed. I turn the volume up and then get blasted by the commercials (though there’re not many). Great info that I can’t find elsewhere.
