Woke leftist politics strike again

The two are constantly going on with their woke leftist politics. Can’t they go one episode without being all woke and lefty, or woking all the way to the left? Five stars.

OLD

I was only introduced your show recently, and I am absolutely loving catching up with it. That said, and for the record, “MONSTER” is soo not a forgotten film. You guys make me feel so old. Aside from that, keep it going!
