First off, the podcast is one of the highlights of my day. I listen while at work to drown out background noise (charter boat captain, and I don't want to hear my guest's stupid questions). Because of this I have the volume up and some times Neal just about blows out an ear drum, while Chase sounds reasonable ( no pun intended). Sometimes I even hear what sounds like a little kid whining in the background about white people problems. Is it just me? I'm not complaining about content. I think it is a wonderful product. If it is just me, let me know and I will chalk it up to the voices in my head. If not, just a little contructive criticism. Can't wait to hear you during the season with or without optimal sound levels. Keep up the good work Neal, Chase...............
