In a world where common sense feels like a superpower… Longtime friends David and Greg team up to become the Common Sense Super Heroes — at least in podcast form. Let’s be honest: everyone has a podcast now. And yeah… a lot of them miss the mark. So David and Greg decided to do one too — not claiming to have all the answers, just bringing something that’s in short supply these days: common sense. From politics and sports to everyday life, nothing is off-limits. Expect honest takes, real conversations, a little humor, and a lot of perspective. Because what’s clearly missing today is… common sense. So suit up and tune in. Common sense is back. 🦸‍♂️🦹‍♂️ Common Sense Super Heroes

    Ever felt torn between loving an artist's music and disagreeing with their views? Let’s dive in. 🎶 Tag someone who needs to hear this! We all have that one artist whose tunes we can’t resist, even when their opinions clash with ours. Take the Black Crows, for example. Their recent comments about America during a concert sparked debate and left many fans feeling conflicted. Music should unite us, not divide us. Yet, it’s tough when artists use their platform for political statements. Remember, we can appreciate the art while critiquing the artist. What do you think? Can you separate the artist from their views? Let’s keep the conversation going! 🎤
