“In general, this is an okay podcast. Sometimes the info is useful, sometimes not (and you can say that about most podcasts). For example, #346 “Discovering Infinite Simplicity” was not for me. However, #340 “Navigating Health Insurance” was interesting and useful. Sometimes, the host or hostess talks too much and has to compare themselves with the guest or even one-up them on a particular point. However, it is worth listening to the topics that interest you because you can usually get something out of most of them.
One point I’d like to pass onto the podcasters is that you should prep your guests on how to answer questions in a way that gives the guest more authority as an expert. So for example, today I listened to episode #307 with Jody. She quite literally started every sentence with “yeah…” and/or “absolutely….” In my view, this diminishes her presentation. I understand that not everyone is a professional speaker, but you could provide a few pointers beforehand so that the guest sounds more authoritative on their subject matter.”
