Terrible Audio Editing

I’ve listened to this podcast from the initial launch, and while a little dull, I’ve enjoyed the informative and relevant content. That said, the audio editing (especially this past year) has been okay at best, and horrible at times. I’m talking wild fluctuations in audio, overlapping tracks, strange cuts, etc…

I get it, these pods are made fast and mistakes happen. But like I said, I’ve been listening from the beginning and this is a consistent annoyance. To the point where I’m no longer interested in the content.

You will be missed!
