Love everything but I do have an issue with this podcast and Counter Clock, wonderful podcast Delia hosts. It’s the voice quality, what on earth is happening here? If you listen to the first few seasons of CC her voice was so rich and warm. I wanna say towards the last few seasons of CC and now PP it’s tinny and low quality. Reminds me of the old AOL days. Remember the songs on the CD were rich and clear vs those AOL previews that sounded tinny, staticy? Sometimes I can’t even listen to the episodes because of the sound quality being so low quality and sharp. My guess is the mic is failing (happened to me) or maybe the editors are over enhancing her voice and are losing richness. Also it could be audio export quality and bitrate to possibly save on storage? (I hope that’s not the case because it produces a weaker end product. None of the other 10-15 podcasts I listen to have this strange voice quality issue) I hope y’all read this cause if it gets fixed I’d be over the moon happy. Love the team keep up the great work!!!

I love love love this pod but you need a synonyms term for the term “according to” and “the source material”. It’s said very repetitively.

I enjoy Delia’s stories, but for the love of audio journalism, please please please stop using the phrase “the source material!” In the newest episode, “The Picnic,” I counted at least eight, possibly 10, uses of the phrase. And that’s just ONE EPISODE. I wasn’t trying to count; the usages just jumped out at me. It’s distracting and offputting and you don’t need to say it, Delia. It’s literally the only reason I’m giving this interesting show three stars instead of four or five.
