Example of potential wasted by choosing the wrong host

“The topics and guests on this podcast are so great (and that one star is for them). At worst a guest is nervous and fumbly…a decent interviewer can get past it but the host of this podcast is either too inexperienced or brutally narcissistic? I thought earlier episodes were rough because she was getting used to the format but listening to the latest episodes…It is as if she has taken all the constructive criticism and feedback from listeners to purposefully make her interviews worse. I can’t think of any other podcast host who has gotten worse over time. The host consistently interrupts guests mid-sentence trying to finish their sentences (the confident guests have to correct her and the less confident guests just agree with an awkward silence following). She will even interrupt interesting narratives to proclaim “oh”, “uhm”, “and and, well, and”, which is so infuriating for the listener and the flow of logic and information. This host has perfected the use of word-salad over time, regurgitating what guests say (often slightly incorrectly) and she is so so cringy with minority guests, particularly Southern, African, and African American ones. Please consider replacing her. I love the topics and guests but at this point your host proven she isn’t invested in improving her communication and podcasting skills. I don’t think she is capable of bringing out the best in her guests without competing with them for centre stage. The editing and audio quality are often poor but I’ll happily deal with that if guests get to actually speak and answer questions.”

“So much talk, so little information. Leave in all the ahhh's and pauses and speak in generalities. Leave out any hard facts about the topic covered and you have this podcast.”Read full review »

“The host just can't let the guests finish their sentences, can she? Who cares about your opinions? I'm here to hear what the experts have to say. Stop effing interrupting them! Worst podcast host ever.”Read full review »
