Customer Reviews
Always entertaining
Great show guys + enjoy the banter / ☯️ of topics + keep uo up the excellence ++ can we get'a quarterly fireman Danny take on show topics?
Over 50, Starting Over
This resonates with me, and I think it must relate to most people in that we all find ourselves at some point(s) in our lives having to adjust to a new journey, either by choice or by circumstance. It’s not easy but we can make it less hard. I appreciate listening to Merle’s and Barry’s perspectives and personal stories as there’s always at least one “ah ha” moment. Yes, they speak of religion and God, but that shouldn’t discourage anyone from listening. It’s because they are speaking as their authentic selves. If that’s not really your thing, still listen for the message that serves you and skip what doesn’t. It’s like an abundant buffet!
Great chemistry!
These guys are over the top good! You will be entertained and informed and you will laugh along the way. Not only that, you will leave the podcast better than you were when you came in.
