Found Too Late!

I’m so sad I found this podcast after it had already ended, but I thoroughly enjoyed binging it all at once. I actually preferred the episodes without guest complainers. Many of the guests were great but I definitely zoned out through a number of those segments. Keeping my fingers crossed for a 2024 Hot Guy March Madness!
