    *This is the last episode that will be posted on the Speaking of Tangents feed. So please subscribe to Midwest Bias podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Tune In Radio, Pocket Casts, or wherever you get your podcasts! Thank you!

    Episode 1 - It’s the inaugural Midwest Bias episode and in true Speaking of Tangents podcast fashion, the episode went a little long. Kj kicks off this episode by explaining the genesis of the Midwest Bias podcast and its planned structure. Next, it’s time for Questions with the Co-host (4:53) - with the Hall of Famer (HOFer)! They define what constitutes the Midwest, talk the Minnesota Twins and the lowly Boston Red Sox, potlucks, tater tot hot dish, Friday night fish frys, taverns, and tavern sandwiches (?). Later, Kj joins the HOFer to taste some Colorado brews in Taste Test with the Hall of Famer (32:25)! Then, they are joined by this week’s Guest “Expert,” Professor Brad Weiss (@1BradWeiss on Twitter), who brings along his East Coast Bias, plus a splash of West Coast and Midwest Bias (42:40). Brad shares his definition of the Midwest, they answer a listener question about Chicago, and Brad tries to sell us on North Carolina. Music, barbecue, donuts, and ice cream are among the many reasons to visit NC. Thanks, Brad!
    A good (central standard) time was had by all! Taste Test with the HOFer unedited companion video (Time code to resume podcast: 37:30) : https://youtu.be/UtOwyg4BunE

Fun

When you just need to get away from everything going on in the world, this is the podcast for that. KJ and Jason bring levity and enjoyment to their show

Jason’s one weird dude

I started out liking this podcast and was a regular listener. I love Jason’s voice, but his bizarre opinions about foods, as well as his paranoia began to grate on me. He is one weird dude. KJ is great. Her stories about Amazon deliveries, baseball game salads, and her brother in Antarctica make me laugh. But I just can’t listen to Jason anymore.

Good is up

Tim Argar’s Story was very fascinating. Great interview
