Apple is awful ,

Great show

Fabulous show, best podcast out there to keep up with what’s new and good on streaming.

dwjohnson2 ,

I have always been a fan of Dan’s

I have been listening to/following Dan for over 10 years and for that reason won’t give a bad rating but I can’t stand how much politics Dan has been shoving down our throats lately. Stop mentioning Elon Musk. You are obsessed and it’s actually embarrassing. No one uses Big Sky or Threads or whatever else. Get over it please!!!!

nurfurder ,

Show is pretty good, but omg the volume of the ads

Ad volume is way too high. Shocks me every time. Do what tv shows are now legally required to do and keep content and ads at same volume.
