Salt & Honey #88: A Map to the Sun

Salt and Honey is a podcast by two friends and full-time cartoonists, Sloane (From Under Mountains, A Map to the Sun) and Leslie (Snotgirl) who want to delve deeper into why they like what they like and hate what they hate.Each week, we explore different aspects of different comics (popular and obscure), as well as other popular media, including but not limited to movies and television.

I love this podcast. Thanks for all the great episodes!! : )

so good!!

I love the topics of this podcast as well as the two hosts. However I don’t love the inconsistent audio quality. Some episodes are flat out terrible because of it. They sort of fixed it, but right now its a guessing game on whether the next episode will be awful or not. I’m writing this so that maybe it will be known by the creators that the audio could still use a lot of work. Again, the podcast is great and I recommend it. There are a lot of episodes that aren’t messed up audio-wise that people should listen to. Considering podcasts are an audio-only medium it should be a lot better.

Audio problems, but still a great podcast.
