Is the audio really low on the podcast for anyone else?

The Apprentice is one of the best shows of 2009. Considering it’s network and timeslot it rated quite well and proved to be very strong in the younger demographics.

Really strange that Camille compared Idol and the Apprentice ratings. This statement was so ignorant that it scared me. I hoped this podcast would be a researched and well thought out review of the media landscape but what is clear is that these guys don’t seem to understand ratings or programming. Random sweeping statements, that don’t really have any commercial context.
