I'm impressed with your progress!

Here's a quick feedback:

• when I load it, the website seemingly doesn't stop loading
• there is no way to explore podcasts & the app without being logged-in. Is that your goal?
• when I go to https://aureal.one/about-us and reload, it then shows me Podcasts, Explore, Live etc. Relates to prev. point. Personally, I think people should have the ability to explore the app without needing to sign-in.
• loading time for the explore page is somewhat slow, roughly ~6 seconds until all podcasts are loaded. What's your tech-stack and/or where is the bottleneck (API, Database)? Are you caching results?
• explore page responsiveness isn't smooth and a bit buggy in 320px/425px width
