Yes -- the deep dives and the why and history behind the laws are what make it interesting -- not just "this is the law".

2023-02-18 03:33:17 +0000 UTCGoing to continue supporting for now. You need a non-lawyer as a host. It’s really needed to prompt you with questions and to encourage you to explain things. Unless you want all your non-lawyer backers to fall away, I’d consider a change.

2023-02-17 00:12:23 +0000 UTCNot sure if it was the topics or just practice, but the flow was better between both of you. Liz still needs a better mic/recording setup. Are you capturing her audio on your end and not having her make a local recording that is later merged?

2023-02-16 20:51:22 +0000 UTCI liked this episode. Liz has an edge and gives Andrew shit in a refreshing way, even if a little contrived at times. She’ll be even better with a proper mic. I have appreciated Thomas since following him through his epic bible read and I listen to his other shows with pleasure. He was a big part of OA’s success and I’m sure a major driver of format and content creativity—not forgetting his great questions and interviewing skills. Wish this hadn’t happened but unfortunately when you can be replaced this easily it says something about where you ultimately stand in a business partnership and how much leverage you have when SHTF. I’m staying with OA and will support Thomas and Andrew separately now that I can’t support them together.
