Customer Reviews
January 26 2024 episode
I love listening to this podcast but my gosh push the mikes away a little I can hear their whole respiratory systems! 😂😂😂
Sort of, Sort of, Sort of, ad infinitum
Why in the world, this host has the necessity of preceding every single adjective with the words “sort of”? Its nauseating to listen to all these unnecessary word fillers!
Strong content, not objective
I appreciate the podcast as it helps me to know what is going on however I would appreciate an objective perspective. It is too biased and one sided.
