I hope you never stop finding stories to tell!! You are a great story teller and your stories are so compelling. Thank you for what you do!!

I love both seasons of this podcast so much!

I really want to like this. The concept is cool and the idea of learning about classical competition is fascinating... but I&#39;m just kind of bored by the presentation

edit: season 2 is fun and engaging, though I&#39;m a little concerned by the hosts responses to some of the kinks, etc discussed (did they have NO idea what this community is about?) I really did not appreciate their complete writing off of contestents during the final either.
But ABOVE ALL there needs to be an improvement in the sound quality.  I frequently have to push my volume WAY up when anyone else is talking and then rush to drop it before the hosts come back and blow out my eardrums. Half the questions the contestants were asked on stage I couldn&#39;t hear

It's OK but needs sound work
