I Love Your Podcast, But Why Does The Female Host Keep Talking?

Has your female co-host ever heard of the dangers of vocal fry?

Subject: I love your podcast! Some notes…

Greetings, Mr. Henshawe!

I only subscribed to your podcast a week ago, and may I just say — wow! I’ve already listened to your entire backlog, including the early episodes that you’ve since apologized for. Unfortunately, there’s one thing holding you back from becoming a top dog in the podcasting revolution like Conan O’Brien: your female co-host keeps talking!

Has your female co-host ever heard of the dangers of vocal fry? I can explain it to her, if you send me her email address — for some reason, it’s not publicly listed.

I figured you’d want my expertise — I am an accomplished podcast listener and I know about some obscure stuff (have you ever heard of My Brother, My Brother, and Me?). Together, we can save your future fans from the 50% unpleasant listening experience I had!

My notes:

1) I haven’t spoken to a woman in over a year (because of the pandemic) so I might be forgetting what they sound like, but your female co-host’s voice is often too high — “shrill”…
