Rick & Brad On Demand

Love the show and listen in every morning on Apple podcast. However episodes are not uploaded until days or weeks later. Even going to OMNY the episodes are missing. How can I get my show biz news weekday fix when it’s inconsistent? I would listen live but sleeping at 7:15ish AM

I’ve been a Rick & Brad fan for as long as I can remember and I was really excited years ago when I discovered that there is a podcast for the parts of the show I might miss. Unfortunately there is very little consistency in how and when a new show is released. Sometimes you’ll get a show biz segment, or maybe the entire show, or sometimes you won’t get anything. Oddly, whenever it’s just Rick there’s no show at all, not even show biz. Also, the ads have gotten completely out of hand. There are one and a half minute ads sprinkled throughout the podcast and they are dropped in wherever. Sometimes the ad is in the middle of someone’s sentence. I just finished a show biz podcast that had 11 minutes of ads. I love this show and I want to support it but if R&B are not interested in taking a little more pride in their podcast content and consistency, I’ll just stick to listening on the radio and just have to miss the parts I miss.

Rick and Brad have been a favorite for years, so much so that if they were in a segment as I arrived to work I would do an extra loop around the block to hear the whole thing before having to turn off the car radio. Now with the podcast of all segments I have a much better rate of on time arrivals at work. Brad is one of the best interviewers I’ve ever heard, yet still the curmudgeon I wish I had the guts to be. The whole team of four is great. Please keep ‘em coming!
