Could be better
I’ve enjoyed this podcast on and off for a few years. Unfortunately, I can’t take it for more than a few episodes at a time because David, much like many amateur Hosts, he fills about 50% of the interview with his thoughts instead of letting the expert speak. It’s normal to want to engage, share your thoughts, and your “oh yeah, that reminds me of this” moments when you’re having a conversation. But this is a conversation for others to listen to, and we want to hear the expert. I often look at who is being interviewed and find them on another podcast where the host knows how to ask good questions and get out of the way.
