Customer Reviews
I tried
I really wanted to like this show, but despite my being an independent this show is so one-sided, it’s hard to listen to. Case in point: the Hunter Biden story from March, a mere three months ago. Then I listened to the one from a day ago and they still are so one-sided despite hunters conviction. I expected at least a retraction or a mea culpa. But nope.
Mission accepted
Greatest podcast since Piltdown Man roamed this flat earth! John Sipher & Jerry O’Shea have walked the walk, and Adam Davidson brings the receipts. The podcast presents the story behind what we see in the headlines. Thank you John & Jerry for your perspectives, service and insights.
