PTI

Usually enjoy this podcast but audio issues like popping sounds make it unlistenable recently.

So I was sitting at home after my daily workout watching Pardon the Interruption, when Tony Kornheiser turns to the camera and tells the world about PTI being available on iTunes. And I thought to myself, well that sounds great and all but I'll bet they will have commercials or something of the sort that will waste my time and keep me from the gripping words of my two favorite sports analysts. But, no. There are no commercials and the show is able to flow from topic to topic unhindered by another add for Guinness Draft (although I think the commercials are brilliant, I think that they should back off and let Red Stripe get some time). But I digress, Pardon the Interruption on the iPod is pretty much the best thing that has happened to the podcast scene, making me be able to listen to their epic banter while I'm working out instead of having to start early and finish with them halfway through their show. I love PTI on iTunes.

Dear ESPN and Disney, You have invested millions of dollars in this show. Some/most days, the uploaded audio quality of this show is absolutely NOT listenable. These issues have been ongoing for years, and impacted Around the Horn before the show was taken off the air. Please please invest in either a) an employee who cares about the audio quality of your product, or b) someone who works in quality assurance who can clean it up. Wrong episodes have been uploaded to the wrong days/wrong show previously, and it just happened last week. It just doesn’t make sense for you to neglect the audio uploads since there are paid advertisers. Do better for Tony and Wilbon - Listener since 2002

The sound quality is getting worse, episodes are posted days late, or out of order, or mistitled, or just won’t play at all. You’d think the show would be handled with a bit more respect.
