High hopes but disappointing

I was excited to find a plant-based podcast that talks about and promotes the different aspects of living. Unfortunately, I find it hard to listen to this podcast because every time he has something to say, she barrels over him and takes over the conversation and goes off on different tangents. It’s chaotic and difficult to follow, in my opinion. I just wanna listen to him finish a point and I can’t because he’s rarely able to. It’s like she thinks that she knows better or can explain everything better or is more knowledgeable or something like that. That’s all I can even focus on when I listen to this. I would suggest they listen to other podcasts where there’s two hosts and find one where both are equally able to share and take some notes from those podcasts. And then it would be nice to drop the aspect of religion, not a selling point for me. But I also understand there are folks out there that appeal to this angle. I don’t so I’m going to search for another plant podcast.two stars instead of one for the plant based focus.

New to whole food plant based and you are a huge help!!

I am new to this adventure, and I find value in every one of your podcasts. I love that your information is backed up by science and that you’ve seen it in your own life. You’re also both very upbeat and easy to listen to, and I started at the beginning, and I’m pretty quickly making my way through many podcasts! thank you for doing what you do and making this journey easier
