Reverse Psychology and Throwing Caution

Gut Check is one of my favorite podcasts. I initially came for the soothing dulcet tones of one Ted Kluck himself (definitely not a fan girl or anything), but stayed for the familial banter, inside jokes, moments of wholesome genuineness, stories, occasional laughing of wives in the background, and overall pleasantness of both hosts. Sometimes I use reverse psychology on myself by only allowing myself to listen to this podcast when I do my least favorite household chores in hopes of being enticed into completing wearisome tasks. And while I come for the aforementioned merriment, I always stay to sing along with the closing song “Throw Caution to the Wind” (seriously, it’s a bop, please put it on Spotify). Much love from the PNW!

Rocketship Quality

I am a HUGE fan of the podcast, five stars right off the bat. I have re:listened to episodes so many times because there is nothing like the the honest conversation of you gentlemen. This is, by far, my favorite podcast.

Now, I'll be even more honest with you. This past summer, episodes we're coming out that wreaked of a dying podcast. I was so close to emailing in just to say... put it to rest. Put this beautiful dog down before it gets too sad to listen to, it'll be okay. But I was wrong. THE DOG LIVES.
Now I am here to say well done, gentlemen. You have revived the morale of the troops, you have done what many are not capable of. With just as much gusto as the early episodes, you have successfully made a comeback. Thank you for making great radio.
