Sir, you are a broadcaster on a nationally heard program. Please take the necessary steps to improve the quality of your sound. It sounds like you’re using your kitchen as a studio and that creates too much reverberation. Watch a utube video about how to set up a podcast studio! My gosh do better!
Thank you
