Will you share the results when done? I'm kind of curious as I do my own podcast.
I like podcasts where the hosts have an obvious, friendly camaraderie that doesn't feel forced. Hosts that throw comments between each other, discuss and debate stuff. Kessel Run in particular is great at this, so is Mynock Squadron and Back To Dials . One of the reasons that I struggle with Nova Squadron Podcast (other than length of episodes) is the sheer number of hosts and how overly segmented it is. For example, Ed will introduce each person on that episode, ask them what they've been flying, and they will take in turns to talk uninterrupted for anywhere between 5 and 30 minutes. After that, nobody will react to it, and the show moves on to the next person. It feels a little forced. It feels like I'm listening to speakers at a conference rather than a group of friends discussing something interesting.
That said, it's hard to beat Nova Squadron and Scum & Villainy for sheer pedigree and knowledge about the game. Having people like Paul Heaver, Theorist, Kinetic Operator (etc etc) talk about their thoughts is incredibly interesting and valuable. I will always listen to both podcasts each episode, but they're not the first ones on my list in the morning.
1 Hour episodes are perfect for me, as my train commute to work is 1hr 10min. Bad audio quality is the main thing that makes listening a turn-off.
FWIW, I think you're pretty much hitting the balance between "staying on-topic so the episodes respect the listener's time" and "showing enough personality that the whole thing isn't just tedious to listen to" pretty bloody well on the 186th.

Thanks! I know James, Mike and Alex try really hard to keep the episodes concise and relevant. They'll be pleased to hear it
I like podcasters that don't take themselves too seriously and are a little bit silly.

It's the one about the guys who no longer go to tournaments.
