Customer Reviews
Great podcast!
Funny, informative and diverse
Been listening since 2008. BUT too many ads now. EDIT: Political
I love the podcast. In fact, this is the first podcast I ever heard and subscribed to back in 2008. But recently there have been WAY too many iHeartRadio self promotion ads. It’s a giant turn off. Podcast discovery happens in the app. The demographics that listen to this podcast will never want to subscribe to any of those cross promotion of other podcasts. The one star is for iHeartRadio and the infuriating ads, NOT Josh and Chuck and Stuff You Should Know.
