“I appreciate the effort Chris, but the way you present the podcast makes it hard to pay attention to the story you are saying.
A major first improvement would be your “radio voice”; you sometimes. Speak your. Words very quickly and. Chopped up. It makes it very. hard. to listen along. to. Episode 1 is definitely the most pointed example of this.
I get that you don’t want the history to be too dry, but bear in mind that anyone searching for “chinese history” is likely OK with dryness; I get thrown out of the moment when I hear you say (regarding the migration of peoples from Africa to other locations) “to which this pale skinned, blue-eyed male says …”. Another cringeworthy instance is where you describe-but-not-describe the invention of sex. Your audience isn’t made up of children; best to avoid any culture- or age-specific jokes and funnies.
If you implement those two instances of feedback, I think you’ll hit a level of professionalism that would make the podcast quite decent. I’ll check back in a few months to see things are improved; till then, good luck, and thanks for helping educate folks!”
