Customer Reviews
Too loud
The content is interesting and it’s one of the podcasts I listen to most, but the advertisement and especially the jazz transition music is SO LOUD. When I’m driving and my hands are occupied, I actively cringe at the expectation of having my eardrums blasted when an episode begins or ends. When I’m not driving I try to skip ahead to the ~2 minute mark, because missing a bit of starting context from the actual show is worth preserving my hearing. Please make the audio levels consistent.
Good content
I am a longtime investor in Biotech and find the topics and interviews extremely interesting. The sound is not that good but it really doesn’t matter when the content is interesting. I would shorten the intro jingle by 50%. Keep up the good work.
Not for physicians
I’m a physician doing translational research in gene therapy. At least for the medical part the interviews discuss inaccurate information. For example there’s a talk where the interviewee says that in medicine therapy for most or all diseases are only symptom based “...such as diabetes and cancer...” which is absolutely wrong as especially in these diseases therapy starts as early as possible specifically to prevent symptoms. In addition there are some interviews where it seems that the members of the discussion haven’t discussed before hand what points will be touched and sometimes the interviewee “corrects the interviewer” which makes listening confusing. I’m unsubscribing and will search for other translational gene therapy research podcasts.
