    Frank is a living legend. Need to have him on once a month. You still wouldn’t run out of great stories.

    When guests are on zoom, it’s difficult to control the audio on their end. This is also a live show, which adds another aspect that is difficult to manage with audio or video. I thoroughly enjoyed it even with the audio issues. Thanks guys and thanks for bringing us Frank’s stories. An American Hero 💪🏻💪🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

      True but it can be done. There are a lot of podcasts that manage to do it well. They have audio issues every episode even when they have their guest in the studio. I’ve gotten to the point where I just stop listening 20 minutes into the show. I’m not yet at the point where I don’t even give it a chance but that’ll come soon. Hopefully, they’ll get it cleaned up.

      It’s fine guys the sound was bearable. I could here him just fine.
      I’m 22 minutes in and lovin it.
      You should have Frank on once a month. Great story teller.

    Frank is another SF man of distinction. I'm impressed with the quality of men that served with SOG. The stories are amazing.

    I would buy his book the day its released. Loved hearing this man speak. Audio was mishandled but well worth it.

    Love these interviews...as a farmer myself, quite interesting how many high end guys have that as their background. My neighbor was a Vietnam vet...and life long farmer as well.

    Hey guys, I think it’d be a big service if you fellas would put timestamps per topic in the vid description.
    Personally I dont always have time to listen to the whole shabang like right now, and if you guys were to time stamp some of the juicy bits it’d hold my attention (thanks TBI)
    I always go back and listen to it all, but I bet marking topic time stamps would do a lot for y’all’s program. Thanks again fellas, keep it up

    Great guest. Audio levels are off and everyone sounds muffled and like they’re underwater as usual. Really wish you guys would up the production quality. You get excellent guests. The consistently shoddy production doesn’t do them justice.

      They need a sound engineer so badly.

    • @JasonOwensYT
      @JasonOwensYT Před rokem +3

      ​​@@leaningforward5294 There are podcasts with zero money that don't have this issue. That being said I didn't think the sound on this was bad. Sounds fine to me.

    Well as an Audio Engineer , 35yrs retired Hollywood feature film, this sounds ( for what it is) acceptable.The guest mic is the one built into the computer. That’s what they sound like.
    In fairness, the lav mics are creating a lot of clothes noise.
    The problem is these guys aren’t pro sound guys,
    The answer is to have the program foldback in the cans.
    They aren’t hearing program.

    Great guest so cool but I had to listen at slow speed he was hard to understand deepest raspy voice I’ve ever heard damn he got a lot of testosterone in him still I’m being very literal too

  • @marcmontet8581
    @marcmontet8581 Před rokem +1

    It was hard decision but it did a thumbs down... Probably a real interesting guest with a tremendous story to tell, BUT... if you can't understand him it's just pieces of a story which is really disappointing 😕. I understand the problems of a live show on zoom or what ever, but maybe you could run some tests prior the show to avoid this sonographic debacle 🤷
