My favorite podcast

At first ACC's voice kind of annoyed me because his delivery is kinda flat and monotone. But now it's actually one of my favorite things about the podcast. Deadpan delivery with hints of sarcasm and killer jabs. Love it, so funny. ACC is doing a public service producing these shows. Please never stop.
