Please, No More Donovan or Ross
Great to have something like this, though this version is very poorly executed. Main issues: Donovan Smith: Grating to listen to, constantly talks over other guests, and just doesnt bring anything to the table knowledge wise - lots of opinions though. Will spout off about any and everything. I tune out and delete if he is on and cant imagine that I am on the only one. Ross: Basically same as above, though he does seem to at least have a trade and some regional experience of relevance. Better as a moderator than guest. But yeah, constantly talking over other guests is just rude...the episode with him and Donovan was a train wreck -why do you have to have these 2 rude guest on every show?? Stronger planning, moderation: The moderator is very weak and just sort of tosses out the topic like chum in the water. How about trying matching guests to the topics - I dont want to hear about the above 2 guests skepticism about renewable energy as they clearly don’t have the first clue about anything related to energy generation. Just getting some opinionated dudes to spout off does not make a show!

I’m from Taiwan but I live aboard in Canada. I use this podcast to keep up with the news back home. I’d say it’s four star but I have a hard time listening to Ross. He tends to babble sometimes.

All commentators are Americans, except for Dimitri, giving the program a very American slant.
