    Poor audio
    I really want to like this podcast. The subject matters seem very interesting to me. However, the host Neil starts out his sentences, thoughts etc at an alarmingly high volume. By the time his thought is nearly completed his voice has trailed off so much that it is barely audible. Most of the time the guest’s audio is just fine with consistent volume and tone. Hopefully this is something that can be corrected.

    Host gets high on his own Farts
    D bags will enjoy the pompous hosts wit and charm. I’m guessing NPR wouldn’t give him a job.

    Wasn’t sure at first
    It took me a while to warm up to Neil’s style, but I’m glad put in the time. These are great interviews and I really appreciate the unique selection of guests. After every episode I’m left with the same complaint . . . why is it over already? I hope he brings some of these folks back as I feel there is much more to talk about. Keep it up!

    Good stuff
