Feel like I'm in primary class
The topics covered are great. However, the delivery needs work. I'll try to be very fair here. Anyone coming from a Mormon upbringing will instantly identify that the hosts are clearly Mormons -nothing wrong with that. However, there is a very nuanced culture that goes along with being Mormon and this spills over into the podcast - nothing religious of course but a particular dialect, tone, topics discussed, etc. Having left the religion many years ago these nuances speak louder than any of the topics covered so its a very hard listen for me. Anyone listening who did not grow up Mormon will most likely not pick up on any of it and will most likely enjoy the podcast. However, it leaves me feeling like a child in Sunday School.

It's all the information relevant to me in a condensed well structured show. I've started...Read full review »
