I have been working through the back catalog, and it is great to see all the things this podcast and the Node.js / io.js community have been through, and understand the behind the scenes workings of the technology, the community and the related events. Thanks to all for bringing me into the community!
An even greater variety of topics

With the latest show on mental health I’d have to say that Nodeup is even better than before. Broaching topics that are not just technical gives great insight into the bigger world of node/software development for me.
Also, as much as I enjoy the new hosts I miss dshaw, too. I hope he’ll be doing more shows in the future.
Daniel Shaw makes the show unlistenable.

I don't mean to be rude. I really don't. I love the show a lot and the discussions they have are very useful. I simply cannot stand to listen to it because dshaw is REALLY REALLY REALLY bad about "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and "ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm". He does it between almost every other word and it's soooo annoying.
This show would be so much better if he would learn how to not use filler words. I'd even be happy if he reduced them to "uh" and "um" instead of the long drawn out versions he currently does. Seriously, I understand having to pause between words and sentences to think for a second but there is nothing wrong with a little thoughtful silence before your next word.
I cringe so hard when Daniel speaks that I almost never make it very far into an episode before shutting it off. I came here to unsubscribe, but I love the show and its content so much that I thought maybe an honest review might reach Daniel and he can work on toning it down.
I don't like being told what to do anymore than the next guy so I understand if my review goes ignored, but if there's a chance Daniel could be pursuaded to be more mindful of his filler words or if they could be edited out in post, then I would love to keep listening.
