Customer Reviews
Good content, bad audio
Edit: 8/4/20
The quality was much better this episode!
Previous comment:
He has great content, not the best speaker but not horrible as others mentioned. The audio quality is what gets me, there’s so many decent USB mics for a podcast that sound better than this, it’s as if he’s recording on his phone. Today’s episode really got me, I couldn’t even focus because I could hear people (assuming kids & wife) and birds in the background. I’m all for comfortable WFH situations but if you’re going to be recording such a short podcast, at least hide in the bathroom for 5mins to record (plenty great albums were recorded with bathroom acoustics).
Too politically left
There’s also a sort of apocalyptic thinking that creeps into most episodes. There are bad things in the world, but this podcast dwells on the negative far too much
Lackluster
Script sounds like it was AI generated and narrated.
