What’s that sound?

eli (E-lie) she/her

Enjoy the interviews but the sound effects/music are distracting. At many points they play over the person being interviewed. Perhaps making the sounds, which are supposed to enhance the story, in the background… would be best?
Doesn’t answer the question. Annoying music
