typical hammer-run thing, semi-inept. the most important part of this podcast's episode is inexcuseably deleted. a deleted question is asked, THEN the episode begins, with matier answering SOMETHING, losing all context for the listener. this is KGO-quality, which is a shame.

I really like Phil n respect his even-headed views- resisting going way left, OR right. However, this podcast is mis-produced. It MUST be handled by the same interns at KCBS, judging by the obvious, remedial production. Take today's episode for instance (morning 12/6/19)- it STARTS off "was it bad for 'him' to lose his temper ...?", giving no clue as to WHOM they were discussing until half a minute later. Mr. Matier deserves much, MUCH better!
