I've enjoyed this podcast for a number of years, but it can be pretty unlistenable these days.

The addition of more more people to the pod is to blame. It sounds like everyone is having a much better time on it, there's more laughter anyway, but it makes it much harder to listen to. People talking over each other more doesn't help either.

Why change a format that was working well, only to make it worse?

Surely they warrant some interest?
