Great information, irritating host

Love the info & expertize of the presenters but can’t stand the inflated ego of Waxman - especially her obnoxious style of interviewing.

Wasted opportunity

Sometimes you get valuable industry news but most of the time it's just the host and her syncophant sidekick exhibiting a prolonged case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
When they stick to the business of entertainment it's worth hearing but they just can't seem to do that. I guess they figure since they pay for the show they can force everyone to listen to their politics which quickly devolves into a podcast dedicated to virtue signaling.

Love it!

Appreciate the in-depth analysis that the experts give each episode. With all the questions about what the industry will look like in the current climate, the pod helps break it down into digestible bits with some thought provoking takes.
