I’ve been listening to your first five episodes and I look forward to more. I have one small suggestion, however.
Bear in mind that people sometimes listen to podcasts as a diversion while traveling, which often means through earphones. (I am one of these.) The loudness of your theme is well above that of your voice. I find that if I have my volume down far enough for your theme to be comfortable, your voice is too soft to hear properly; if I have it up far enough to hear you clearly, (especially on a noisy street), your theme hurts my ears.
So I suggest that you make your theme a little softer, both opening and closing.
I’ll work on that! Thanks for the feedback.
I’ll try testing it in a different set of headphones through a different audio interface because it wasn’t coming out particularly bothersome on my end. Curiouser and curiouser!
