Fascinating content - ruined by music and sound effects
This used to be my favourite podcast - well-written, insightful long reads on varied subjects - but it’s pretty unlistenable since they added cheesy music and sound effects. Please ditch this and return to the tried and tested format. I used to recommend this all the time but have stopped based on the music alone. The Guardian deserves better.

Would be five stars but for the presenters with American accents, which I unfortunately find grating and annoying to the extent that I can't listen to those episodes.Read full review »

A super loud and annoying ad plays in the middle of these. Not sure who the marketing genius was that decided loud and annoying would make money here but i hope they write an article about him/her. I won’t listen to it though.
