“This show is somewhere between 3 and 4 stars for me. I like Abby, I think she’s smart and inquisitive and asks good questions. But I have two complaints. One is the overall sound quality. I’ve been listening for years and it feels like it’s never improved much. With so many podcasts in my ears...”Read full review »

“So I love the content but this sound quality has gotten so bad. I can hear typing and a static in the background throughout the whole interview. Volume is all over the place. Abby’s mic is so back I had to stop listening. I wish this would get fixed because the content really is generally good.”

“Sorry for the 3-star rating but the sound quality was lacking (tinny, distant) and I had to quit listening. Otherwise, what I was able to withstand was very interesting.”
