this stuff is real ,

ACCEL

I always enjoyed the prior ACCEL recordings that were very informative. The ACCEL lite interviews are interesting but lack the depth of the previous longer interview format.

This is a joke

I listened to the real ACCEL for decades. This new version, properly referred to as “lite” is superficial, skin deep really. Too much time with smarmy introductory exchanges and meaningless polite banter and god forbid if the moderator dares to not recite all the letters after a speakers name. ACCEL Lite is a joke. I pray for the ACC to bring back the real ACCEL.

Dumbing down of a formerly excellent program

For decades, ACCEL has served as a wonderful educational program. This is no longer the case. Reversion to the original format would constitute a wonderful service to both active members of the ACC and trainees.
