    For goodness sake stop the cheesy format
    Reid and Chris are both awesome, but this format is just cringeworthy. Chris asks a question in a tone that makes him sound like he’s talking to a fifth grader and Then a cut of Reid talking happens. Clearly they didn’t record it together live, it’s all cut together. So many better podcasts out there that have actual conversations

Single. Time. No matter the subject, you’re guaranteed to gain something from every episode - can’t recommend Greymatter enough 🙌
