A New England must!

I am a new subscriber thanks to the episode on Fluff. I grew up on Fluffernutter sandwiches…if you are from NE, you must follow these guys…great banter. Great info which in turn brings back great memories. Great job!

History geeks unite!

Love this podcast. The local lore, the history – great stuff. My wife and I listen while we’re making tortillas at Bramhall’s and the time goes by fast. You guys have done your homework. Thanks!

Nope

Very narcissistic. Host waits to say what he wants to say next and doesn’t listen. No interest or intellect (let alone sensitivity) in regards to conversation happening.
