Too many breaks in new format
I am reviewing to give the feedback that I’m finding the new-ish format with breaks every quarter of an hour so difficult to listen to. It is so frustrating that just as the introductions end and the conversation warms up and really gets going — there’s the music again!! It is so painful to have to listen to the hosts repeatedly cut the guest off (albeit graciously), multiple times in the show, and then the guests lose their train of thought and have to repeat themselves. Not to mention — sometimes there are so many topics covered now in the forum it’s hard to keep up with who the guests are and get any thorough analysis!!! Please, I beg you, change the format back to 1 break at the half hour mark, and thank you in advance! Also, I would give the moderators, who are all excellent, 5 stars. (Krasny and Mina Kim are the best of the best and I’m sad that Michael is retiring.) I feel very spoiled by their superb interviewing skills and their perfect radio voices; in fact, they’ve ruined me for most other podcasts bc I get annoyed or easily tired of most other podcast or program hosts’ ticks and habits.

One of the smartest shows around, always great topics, and guests, many pertaining to the SF Bay Area. Krasny is great, very informed and has a strong command on all the issues tackled on the show. He also uses great syntax Don't miss out on KQED's Forum!!Read full review »
