Easy to listen to...

I love this podcast. I recently discovered it and have been &#39;binge listening&#39; all the episodes. It is great to find other people who share my passion for thrift shopping and collecting fun and unusual things. The thing that took my review from 5 stars to 3 stars is the eating while recording. I can&#39;t stand listening to people talk with food in their mouths. Please wait to eat until after you record the episodes!!

Please stop eating!
