Customer Reviews
A Favorite
I so enjoy this podcast. Sarah’s clearly very knowledgeable about wine but also down to earth. Learning about wine can be overwhelming at times but she makes it approachable and fun.
Please fix your recording tech issue!
Love the podcast - been a mic issue now for a while and sound only comes from the left side of anything I’m listening on (car, headphones, etc.) if that could be fixed I would enjoy listening more. It doesn’t happen with other podcasts or music or anything so it leads me to believe it’s happening on Sarah’s end while recording. Makes it super hard to listen which is why I’ve stopped listening. Sad that her tech issue is why I’m not listening to good content. Please fix.
Content B, delivery F
I wonder if she ever listens to her stuff. She couldn’t talk faster if she tried. Almost unintelligible. If you can follow, the content is not bad, just not great.
