Great content and talent, mediocre sound

I don’t understand how a show from such a big company like ESPN can have such poor sound mixing. At least once a month (including June 27th’s episode), the sound only comes out of the left speaker (except commercials, which are at least mono). Commercials are often way louder than the show’s content and distorted. Been a daily listener since the 2018 World Cup but sad how amateurish the production of the show is sometimes.
