Poignant and relevant

Lovely podcast featuring sharp insights to the groundbreaking multi-layered show Atlanta which serves as excellent supplemental material.

Good content. Bad sound.

I enjoy hearing these ladies discuss the series, but I can't get over how bad the audio is. It's cracked and unleveled, It's loud on some parts and quiet on other, and there's a whooshing sound that pops up and leaves repeatedly. I've listened on six different devices belonging to myself and others, hoping that it was an issue on my end, but it isn't. I hope they invest in better mics because I literally can't listen to another podcast by them with such terrible sound quality.

It's one thing to have good content, but the presentation of that content has to match the product.

An Actual Atlantan ,

Funny Social Commentary from 2 new voices!

I seldom listen to podcasts but love the show Atlanta. This podcast is a perfect companion to watching the show. The hostesses are funny and frequently point out small details that have me re-watching episodes to see the hidden gems. Highly recommend!
