Very poor production quality…

Sorry…love WaPo (subscriber) and Jonathan Capehart is excellent…but…

-Sound quality is subpar.
-Keep say’n, “in the time we have left.” Hmmm…isn’t a Podcast a long-form format? There is no time limits.
-And Linsky, is torture to listen to with her incessant “Um’s” and “Err’s.” Please try and form at least one complete sentence. Or is there a App than can delete them in post-production.
