  • Enjoy the show but the audio is beyond bad

    Taking a break from the show. I listen to podcasts every day and have never seen a podcaster refuse to fix their microphone or other audio issues.

  • Great Podcast (even with the sound issues)

    Found this pod recently and I really enjoy hearing it, but I don’t know if it’s just me, but for some reason, the guests that appear on the show (not Marc) have like a weird “digital echo” as they speak. I’m not sure what else to call it…it’s like digital garbled sounds as they speak. Makes it a bit tough to listen to. Maybe it’s just me. Not sure.

    Fight on!

  • Locked On podcasts tend to be amateurish in general, but this one is BY FAR the worst I've listened to. The host has neither the voice nor the speaking style for the medium, and the listener is often subjected to him stumbling over his words, repeated takes without editing, and a disgusting variety of his bodily functions (no kidding). The whole thing is an embarrassment. USC fans deserve better!

    We are humans. Our body makes noises. In a recent podcast, the sound of gas was not edited. Phew!
