Customer Reviews
Full podcast needed. PLEASE
Johns show is top notch because of him. The interviews are ok so we want the full show.
Where the heck is The Mincing Rascals’ icon
I hear John’s daily show from time to time, but I always listened to the weekly mincing rascals podcast. Suddenly that icon seems to be discontinued, and instead there are 10,000 partial podcast of John’s show and pictures of him on my screen. Is there no way to isolate out The Mincing Rascals podcast and have it appear as a separate icon that people like me could easily locate on my screen? Otherwise, I will be bidding farewell to my weekly adventure with The Mincing Rascals, because I am not interested in fishing it out among all the other topics listed from John’s shows. I predict that I will not be the only person who gives up on you with this new way of listing, mainly stupid jokes. The new format is ridiculous!
Addendum…weeks later… no need to eliminate anything from this crazy format, because, since listening to a couple of additional podcasts of yours, I am happily planning to delete it from my life. You all have sunk to new Lows in my opinion.
King John
I have listened to John ever since he joined WGN many years ago. I have always been so impressed with how he interviews people, and the way he is able to disagree, without offending people. He has a great sense of humor! And I look forward every week to his “Mincing Rascals”. King John rules!
