Customer Reviews
Good spanse of topics, bad volume...
There is a great selection of topics that helpful to strengthening the marriage bond, but the volume makes it difficult to listen to at times. The phone interviews go from barely audible to too loud. Normalizing these two would be very helpful.
Green Farmer
This podcast has interesting topics, but the audio quality makes it almost un-listenable. They usually feature an interviewer talking to a marriage expert on the phone. The interviewer level is so low to hear him at all we had to crank up the volume to full. Then the person on the phone comes on MUCH louder to the point that our speakers are distorting and clipping.
We like the discussions, but please fix the audio!
Improved Audio, Great Advice
This podcast has very practical advice in an engaging conversation format. The various experts are highly qualified and clearly know what they're talking about. This podcast offers terrific marriage advice and is a must listen for every couple.
