Millenials who groc Gen-Xers
Hey crew,
I got a kick out of your hoax issue, and as you’re introducing yourselves as millennials, I wasn’t sure if whether the who was gonna ba age-based insider subcultural references…. but I see it goes everywhere and includes all eras (with some endearingly Gen-X era content). As an Aussie who was travelling to the US for work for each of the GW Bush elections, I’d missed the Nixon prank, but boy was I screaming at the CNN feed in the bar at Dubya’s proclamation of expected vitory air arround 4am - in Orlando Florida no less)... but I digress.
Love your work. I’ve got a substantial backlog to listen to, but I look forward to next month!
Keith Duddy
Very Annoying podcaster
Stop overreacting so much and just let the story be told! Very irritating personality and laughs about horrific situations told in the podcast.
So not recommend at all! Unsubscribe.
Swearing
I love your content, topics and attitude so much, and I really want to share this podcast with my family and friends. Unfortunately, all of the episodes have an excessive amount of swearing, so I cannot listen to the podcast with my family. Please can you make at least a few episodes that don’t have any swearing so I can share/listen to the podcast with my family and friends.
Thanks
