Kaufman is articulate, knowledgeable and organized. Each podcast hums. Wish there were more.
Great podcast, love the 52 week hustle, and Adam’s approach to engaging guests / driving interesting debate. With that said... Whenever Evan hosts the show, he talks 3x more than the actual guest, and it often comes off as an unstructured stream of consciousness. A lot of words used, but often difficult to pinpoint what he actually said. It’s tough to listen to. I’d encourage Evan to leave it to his guests more often. Just because you don’t say as much personally isn’t a bad thing. Fewer, more impactful interjections
I look forward to this on my Sunday mornings to catch up on all my Celtics news. They always have interesting guests. If you like basketball you will love this podcast. Go Celtics!!!! Update: I miss the Sunday podcasts. No other podcasts come out on Sunday and enjoyed this one on SUNDAYS.
I appreciate that Kaufman is a C’s fan and brings that perspective. He has some good guests on the show. However, in some episodes Evan Valenti sounds like he is talking through a tin can.
I wish that the major inconsistencies in audio quality would be taken care of, it seems like a no brainer for an audio only product to have decent audio. The difference in levels between ads and interviews is often really jarring, and a lot of times I can’t understand or hear the guests on the show. I often times find that the information on the pod is already dated and old by the time they release it on Sundays because they mostly do the interviews during the week. This makes a lot of the conjecturing and predictions on the pod completely useless by the time you listen. The point of this medium is to be able to release long form more in depth conversations as soon as you want, and they do not take advantage of this at all. This shouldn’t be released on Sundays like a TV broadcast schedule - let’s join the 21st century and put the content out as soon as it’s produced!
Adam is too wordy and to be honest I fast forward to find the guest responses. It would be better to be less verbose and more succinct. Let the guests talk.
