I know it takes a lot of effort to create and edit content. But I've got to say, I struggle to continue to listen to this pod. Far too often, a "topic" is discussed for several minutes with virtually nothing substantive being said. Worse, one of these guys often repeats the same facile point 6 different ways, like a high-schooler struggling to reach the required time of a public speaking contest.

Beyond that, a lot of the "analysis" here barely qualifies as surface-level. These guys seem nice enough, and I don't want to disparage them on a personal level, but I just don't think they're insightful whatsoever. I don't learn anything listening to them.

Again, I know it's tough to create and edit content, so respect for that, but I just don't find the output/product to be of any value here.
