    Uninformed for these subjects
    Not usually one to put down an entrepreneurial spirit but I’m staggered at how uninformed some of these young folk are. I worry they look authoritative in areas that they clearly are not.

    Refreshing change in Pakistan’s Podcast space
    I like the topics you discuss in your Podcast. Rarely, Pakistan’s Podcasts are well recorded, and discussions are conducted and encapsulated professionally. Your show does both. There are a few suggestions. First, reduce the length of your podcast -50 minutes is a drag. As Pakistani’s, we have the habit of discussing everything under the sun [regardless of the topic]. Would you please try to establish some guidelines for the Second, the anchor needs to become a moderator in the discussion instead of giving thought ideas of his one - trust me, it gets boring. Overall, it's the best one in our local landscape -Keep up the good work and continue bringing new and exciting topics.
