I liked the Planet Money format. Short. Specific topic. Not too in the weeds. Maybe a little ‘Audio Wallpaper’ … but I’m ok with that … sometimes. But … now I am done. It’s not the subject matter, it’s the presenters. Voice, tone, accent … shall I go on? They all affect the listener. For this listener ..... john.philpin.com

@JohnPhilpin I haven't listened to it before but after one minute of the latest episode it just sounds like generic USA-english from that part of the USA.

@SimonWoods the guy .. who I think is actually a Kiwi has an affected nasal twang that is clearly running at a frequency that this body should not have to assimilate.

@JohnPhilpin Found it difficult to tell if there were two or three people, and I think that's because the two male-sounding voices are quite similar. The female-sounding voice was easily the best in my two minutes of listening.
