Amazing. Just one thing

I love this podcast and it’s definitely one of the best but the only thing I don’t like is Bryan’s mic. It’s very umm bad. It makes everyone sound bad

Explicit language

This podcast says it’s clean but includes explicit language inappropriate for children. It’s fine if you want to include that but list your podcast as explicit not clean in the show description.
