Election Extra
The series started well but their speakers are not at a uniform volume and it's hard to hear bits of their conversation. The format is short but not tight enough for a structured conversation. The 10 minute format is perfect but this week I've given up well before that because it's either waffly or the audio fluctuations impair understanding.
