Yeah - I've never been too fond of interviews, but especially if I'm in it for the regular hosts, I want the regular hosts to talk!
This is especially a thing where it seems like nearly all of the Serious Science Podcasts About Serious Science use an interview format, and it's fine, but I'm not going to get really into it, because you never know what you're going to get on any given episode, and I want consistency in my podcasts!
And also especially with scientists, a lot of the guests will have strong accents that I'm not used to listening to, which is super cool, and if they're a regular I learn it pretty fast, but if it's new I have to pay close attention, and I usually listen while distracted, so that doesn't work well when it's a different guest every episode.
