“Good podcast ruined by terrible sound quality - such a shame”

“Really enjoy and very interesting guests but please can someone ask Merryn to get closer to the microphone? Her guests usually sound ok but you can’t even hear her with full volume on and then the ads are deafening! Employ a sound engineer please”

“Great show. I look forward to it every week. Updated my review Content and guests are still excellent however sound quality is so consistently poor. I end up having to turn the volume right up only to be deafened by the ads which are at a normal volume. Very frustrating!”

“Most of these podcasts sound like they are being produced by a child in their bedroom. Whilst the content is often worth listening to, the constant volume level changes between the participants is very annoying. If these podcasts are to continue, please employ a professional sound engineer to...”Read full review »

“This used to be a good podcast until they got quieter and quieter. Sound quality is now so appalling that the past month or so have been impossible to listen to.”

“I’ve been listening to this podcast for a long time and I find it insightful, interesting and it gets to the core financial issues I’m interested in. Gutted to hear Johns going, my favourite episodes are the ones with Merryn and John discussing the topical stuff (sorry other experts). Thanks for...”Read full review »

“Trying to listen on a walk, turned up volume to full and can’t hear the speaking
Updated a month later- please turn the volume up!!! I still can’t hear it when doing anything other than sitting quietly. It seems to be Merryn’s audio that is at a much lower volume than the audio of guests.

“I very much enjoy all of Money Week’s content, written and audio. However, the sound levels are atrocious on the podcast. I can only listen to it on headphones in a quiet room, not a chance in the car. I would happily pay for this content to have better sound quality. Apart from that, this is a...”Read full review »

“These podcasts are refreshing and usually very interesting especially if they have actionable insights (which are far more useful than ephemeral tips).
30 mins is about right, any longer is usually waffle.

However the equalisation between volume levels and adverts is unbelievably bad - just get a couple of MoneyWeek staff to listen to it on headphones at the volume required to hear dialogue, then you...”Read full review »

I know it isn’t easy but a consistent volume helps with some playback devices and those of us whose ears...”Read full review »

“Very good content. MSW always fun and upbeat. I like the gentle cynicism of Merryn and John Stepek. Shows they are not being taken in by the latest fad in investment. I listen every week and always learn something new.”

“On 7.1.2022 Merryn suggested this stupid idea.
It would be unfair as home owners gain nothing when they sell one house to buy another, yet you would tax them on the increase in nominal value. In reality they gained nothing. People would simply never move to avoid this penal tax and immobility...”Read full review »

“So frustrating that Merryn’s words often get swallowed or suddenly booming and speakers don’t seem to realise that they need to stay a constant distance from the microphone. Exhausting to listen too. Hope this gets sorted. Such a pity otherwise.”

“Good podcast ruined by poor amateur-like sound quality. In the most recent podcast the fund manager from Jupiter sounded like he was doing the interview locked inside the upstairs bathroom, with his head down the toilet and Merryn shouting outside. Please sort this basic issue out!!”
