4.5 out of 5 stars from 345 ratings
  • Informative and entertaining

    The content is great and the host are informative and well spoken. Love all of that.

    The production is not good! One host sounds fine, one is a little soft but one sounds like he’s talking into a mic from across the room. Then the commercials are at volume 100 on the 20-80 scale.

  • Great Information, Poor Production

    I listen to this show every week. I’m a long time subscriber, but the production is getting out of control. I do have hearing problems, but the guest and host talking is mixed so low that I can barely hear them. In my AirPods, I have to turn the volume all the way up whenever the hosts are talking. I am typing this on 6/18, I can barely hear Jonathan or Jim, but the noise in the background is audible. Every hit, PA announcer, someone opening a fridge, someone dropping a pen; I can hear it all. C... more

  • Good, but…

    Good content and knowledgeable hosts, but please, please fix the audio mixing… you have to turn the volume up to hear the hosts mumble over each other and then you get your eardrums blasted by an ad… seems like an easy fix but problem persists on.

  • Liven it up!

    Sleepiest host ever. He sounds like he should be on a sleep podcast. Callie and Mayo have good insights, but the pace is lethargic. Makes the listen a slog often. Pick the energy up, guys.
