Tbh not a fan of Shirley's.. She seems like an air head. Voice is also annoying. Been listening less and less since she got on. Get a different female. Thanks
sir podcast is great but voice of you colleagues is not audible
Definitely agree with the audio!
these podcasts are interesting af, but the audio is really bad, they should consider improving it.
