Love it!

We just need to get Christina and Alan proper microphones and recording gear. The audio quality is not very good. But the quality of the conversation is amazing.

No more

I tried to make this podcast girl, but after seeing the recent pictures of Christina in her hermetically sealed bodysuit, I just can’t take it anymore. Alan needs his own podcast.

Excellent

True to form these two give it to you straight. Wonderful listen!
