can’t be bothered
not a comfortable listen. I suspect AI or some other intensive automation is involved in both content and presentation.

Why does it seem to be narrated by a cheap AI? No music edition whatsoever and plain tone of voice … is this really a premium subscribers only podcast? The Financial Times one is ten thousand times better and it’s free.
