Great show. Highly recommend.

Other than the host (Shawn Wasson) having small hands and most recently discovered, even smaller eyes, this is a fantastic show to listen to everyday.

Great show , I’ve been listening since they first started …. The only gripe I have is the podcasters get short changed , I pay for ad free listening but that hasn’t happened since I’ve started paying for it, I believe you guys call the (not ads) but sponsorship opportunities 😂, also when TNJ is off work so is the podcast.
And if you say anything about it your shut down about how busy they are or , if the Him Colbert show can get them posted minutes after they leave I think it’s possible for them to do it as well or either pay someone to do it.
I feel like I’m just a part of the show by listening every day but I can’t because due to work schedules I’m usually getting off work at 6 or 7 am in the morning and sleeping through the show.
Even when the JCS is off for holiday they post all of the best of.
Just saying.. other than that it’s a awesome show with great content with humor fused in the entire time except when a serious topic comes up and the do a great job balancing those news stories as well, I will continue to listen, but it’s just something I think they should look into for all of the podcasters we probably outnumber the live group by far.

Absolute BEST

These three (and sometimes Josh) get me through everything; long drives, long shifts. I never really enjoyed talk radio before my husband recommended this show, but now I never miss an episode. The hosts often have different perspectives on current events and I like the way they convey their viewpoints without (usually) deteriorating into arguments. They are all hilarious! This is a top tier show no matter how you slice it. 10/10
