Avis des utilisateurs
Nice quick bits of information! However…
This podcast is a good listen to anyone who wants an information packed podcast in under 10 minutes.
However, the ads have gotten more frequent and longer over the years and really take away from the otherwise information packed episodes.
The bottom line:
if you like info packed nuggets of a podcast and don’t mind the frequent ads, this is for you. If you hold a grudge against advertisements, I would recommend looking elsewhere.
HORRIBLE AI NARRATOR
PLEASE ITS ABSOLUTELY AGONIZING TO LISTEN TO THE AI GENERATED HOST!
Too many ads
At least the first two minutes of this podcast are ads. The podcast in total is only 10 minutes. That’s not counting ads at the end too
