Good speakers; awful introductions

“I agree with the other reviewer about sound quality, but I’d also like to add my two cents on the introductions. Slate’s other podcasts are all hosted by articulate speakers who get conversations off in a lively fashion. These live events are hosted, one assumes, by bookstore owners/employees, who may have great book knowledge, but know neither how to craft a speech nor how to deliver it. Surely Slate has been selective about which of its excellent writers actually have speaking skills. The same is needed for this podcast, even though it is with a partner. Listening to a dull droning introductory reading of the speaker’s CV is painful. If you can’t avoid it live, why not actually edit it out of the live podcast? And while you are editing, what about editing out the questioners aimlessly listening to themselves speak?”

“I like it that I can listen to these authors expand on the ideas they present in their book. Some of these people have really interesting stories and have put a lot of research into their subjects. Informative!”
