Customer Reviews
Trung Sent Me Here ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have can watch Netflix, Apple TV, HBO Max, and Amazon Prime.
What do I choose?
NIA streamed to my TV.
Excellent insights and commentary make it my go-to podcast and the only news-related content I consume.
Listen to episode 31 and hear Trung breathlessly explain why Costco is amazing and you’ll be hooked.
Looking forward to Jack dropping his pizza NFT project. Hope I get an ultra rare pie. New profile pic coming. 🍕
Favorite podcast
This + the all in pod are all I need to keep updated on what’s happening in the world and on the internet. These guys make me laugh more than anyone
