I WAS raised by wolves.

I love the hosts and I need the input so thank you, thank you , thank you.

How many ways can I say ANNOYING

Wow! If I could rate this lower than one star, I would! Let’s start with the hosts. These are the people you avoid at parties. They are obnoxious! Then there are the voices, like a dental drill without novocaine! I thought my ears were bleeding. We’re certainly entitled to our own opinions, but to come off so egotistical is just, you got it, annoying!

Best thing is they have a crew dedicated to on time podcasts and they have been doing this for years so they have the experience. I can't recommend these guys enough.
