New narrator please

tl;dr: Great info, bad narrator.

I learn a lot from listening to this pod. Sadly the narrator’s voice is so abrasive and robotic. Sounds like a bot from 10 years ago. Hard to listen to. I may unsub soon because it’s too painful. Can we please get Kai Ryssdal over here?

Extreme Biased

This would be a great podcast if it wasn’t extremely biased. Just listened to “The Privacy Flaw Threatening US Democracy” and it was literally all about how bad Trump would be if re-elected in 2024. Have we forgotten how the current President with Obama was caught spying on Americans for years. What Snowden disclosed doesn’t even scratch the surface.
