Detailed map of my rectangle
I love the multiple personalities without cackling laughter. Ian, you and I need to meet and have a beer or two. I live in the same country... I love the show and would like to meet but I don’t want to put my info here for all the trolls????
A great show!
I really enjoy listening to the show. A mixture of humor and information that keeps me coming back. Thanks for the show!
Great Show! I have recommended this to friends
Each week the hosts go through current events both locally and world wide that impact atheists. Their open and honest discussions are refreshing. I listen each week!
