Great podcast

I have already come to rely on these twice daily podcasts. They are a great way to quickly keep up with the news each day.

Where’s Brooke?

This is just pathetic.I’ll give it a few more days but if you guys don’t do something about this I’m out of here.
Are you going FOX? Very contradictory reporting on 20 July. Many were vaccinated? Don’t know how many were vaccinated? This is gotten ridiculous. Either do a podcast or don’t.Mary Poppins is nauseating.
