I found the presentation thought provoking, detailed and captivating

I just started listening to this podcast. This guy’s voice is perfect for the podcast and I love the style this is in. The only reason why I give it 4/5 and not 5/5 is because the podcast art is a bit underwhelming. It looks like someone made it on a powerpoint slideshow with a couple pictures and a font.
