I just wanted to write a quick review just to give my personal perspective. Hopefully in the case that Dax and Monica do read this(likely not), it's just simply my humble opinion and just some constructive criticism. I have been a LONG time listener of the show but I'm finding as time goes on, I am struggling to stay engaged with this podcast. I feel like the more this podcast goes on, it feels like EVERY interview is just a "dynamic vocabulary" gymnastics session with the guest and Dax it's becoming exhausting to listen to. I miss the days of just an interesting interview and getting to know the guest, it just now feels like a competition on who has the "smartest" and "right" perspective on any of the topics discussed during the interview. And again, it's washed down with a bunch of elite grammar that I find myself often saying to myself while listening "For the love of god, please just get to the point". Please understand, I love intellectual conversations just like anyone else, but it just feels like there is a bit of a "I need to prove that I am the smartest person in the room" syndrome happening lately. Eek, so sorry but I am just being honest and I have always been a fan so please know I am just speaking from the heart.I will say, with any TV show, radio show, etc. there is always an evolution that happens as time goes on so of course, this show is morphing as it's growing so I do understand that. Again, just my two cents, I think sometimes taking a revisit and going back to the basics sometimes can be a good thing as I do fear that if this podcast continues on this path, they are likely to lose a large majority of their listeners. But hey, hat's off to you as I have no idea what it takes to make a podcast and I'm sure it's extremely difficult so congrats on all of your success.
