Too cute? Not!

These are such interesting topics and two thirds of each podcast are fascinating. The reason I can’t stand to listen is that about a third of each show is taken up with the guys riffing on and on about how adorable they think they are. At first I could endure it but it’s too much the further it goes. Sorry. I could love it if they would just stick to their topics and leave the imitation comedy for their private enjoyment.

Not on topic

This was a great idea and I’ve been excited to listen to this for a while. Unfortunately it fell flat. There is only a few minutes of good info in the episode. Most of the show is them talking about random stuff that has nothing to do with the scenario.

Amazing

Anthony is some how still under the radar, and yet is one of the smartest and funniest comics out there.
