the key to keeping this show atop the podcast charts every week is that I don't overpromise / under-deliver. While the (ahem) competition offer guarantees of something truly explosive, incendiary, etc., I'm very comfortable the whole "niche" nature of this sort of thing, realizing that many of you are using this program as some sort of mood/vibe enhancement while you're performing all-important tasks on behalf of your paymasters (ie. firing a third of all the staff acquired in a takeover, evicting families during a pandemic, proofreading Trevor Bauer's social media posts, etc.) As always, this episode is neither the greatest broadcast of all time, nor is it the worst experience ever suffered by a thinking person (ie. a Steve Blush podcast). It's somewhere squarely in the middle of the road, sort of like the band Train (who ironically, did not actually travel by rail), without actually featuring the music of Train (see rights clearance department failures , previous episodes)
