The quote-podcast-quote chat highlights and reviews
“The first episode is ‘Really Kinda Really Rough’. James you are a quick talker! Don't recall thinking that when recording heard a couple cuts in his PTO thoughts but nothing terrible’”
“ James a little hard to hear / understand, needs to be a little more conversational in the transitions. Tyler and Garret sound clear. Kept me engaged the whole time. Darin goes into quiet ‘102.5 Dalyla voice'’”
“ Wow! I loved your podcast. Can’t wait for the next one. Also loved when you said that probably only your mothers would listen
