notkredep ,

I like it, but

you guys are just repeating the same bullitpoints in every episode. Trump bad. We good + listen to how amazed we are by this. We understand already. Now whacha gonna do about it? Talk with more people that agree? Apparently so.

Morten Maverick ,

When is Rick coming back?

Love the show but it needs the Molly and Rick connection that made it great.

Don’t get me wrong Molly is awesome but the shows greatness is missing without Rick.

When Rick was there I would listen to Molly and Ricks banter and then mostly fast forward to “F... that guy” unless I was really into the guest.

What I am trying to say is please bring back Rick!

Best regards,

Morten
