I really wanted to like this podcast, but…
The host keeps talking over the guest with his own ‘nuggets of info’ - the vast majority of which end up being dumbed down sound bites of what the guest is already saying. Feels like he has the need to press his ego into the conversation. It destroys the flow and these entirely unsolicited comments often come at a time when the guest is mid-story. This is especially the case when the guest is calling in and the constant ‘yeah, yeah’ interjections cut the audio from the mic of the guest and the interviewer then tries to fill the space by speaking FOR the guest. I mean, isn’t the whole point of these interviews to hear what the guest has to say? I can’t think of portion of the episode I just listen to where the “INTERVIEWEE” was actually allowed to finish their answer without being cut off with inane laughter or a totally unnecessary sound bite. It’s the absolute opposite of the Team Deakins podcast, for example, where the guest is treated with respect and given enough space to tell their stories without being talked over. Urgh.
