I like the subject matter of the pod cast. These guys created the Parcast network...which I loved. Then sold out to Spotify. Carter Roy was also a speaker on there....I didn't connect with his delivery then and I still can't. He sounds like he is reading me a perfectly pronunciated bed time story. Not much inflection in his tone. I'm not going to follow this one.
