It is next to impossible to find any sake related podcasts at all in the present moment. And fewer with anything relevant or interesting to discuss. As an American sake enthusiast, I would love to devour as much knowledge and history on the subject as I can!
This podcast has been a rather valuable insight into the world of sake, but unfortunately with some glaring flaws that I sincerely hope they address in the future. First off, the group is almost near impossible to hear, even at the highest volume. A lot of talking points go completely unnoticed or don't stick due to half of the words being lost in the patchy silence.
And second, there really doesn’t seem to be that much structure to their discussions. While I do like these round table talks, it seems like the hosts are just spitballing around thoughts instead of giving me a more concise narrative. I do like it, but I wish they were a little more structured.
As it stands I appreciate this pod but I’m a little disappointed. Hopefully the show will continue to improve with time, cause they’re really the only game in town!
