Better if podcast posted regularly.
Too many times this podcast doesn't post for that day or too long after the original airing. If one is to be an advertiser on these podcasts the podcast must be posted regularly.
Largely Pointless
While always covering "the top story", this show almost never moves any story forward. It's like a news show concocted by a P.R. department. Violin crescendos and false equivalencies, but no journalism or hard questioning.
Would love to give Wolf five stars...
Would love to give Wolf five stars but i havent been able to upload the daily show since April17th. No idea why. Have tried all sorts of things to correct this.
