Customer Reviews
Two thumbs up!
Love the free roaming convos, your careful and intelligent discussions... but most of all the ranting and the cussing y’all keep inside elsewhere. Wish you were the folks making health policy in this country. Keep it up!
I feel smarter listening
I love the banter and I feel better, smarter and more informed after listening.
Finally!
So much common sense it hurts. Kidding if course. Sometimes they go over my head (not in a medical profession) but always learn a lot. This show gives you things to think about! Listen, you won’t be disappointed and no I don’t always agree :)
