    WAWTA Guest Austin Creed

    I got an incredible chance to chat about the power of music, among other things, with Austin Creed during Black Music Appreciation Month. This episode is the first to be recorded remotely, so pardon the squeaky chair and other background noises; I don't claim to be a professional.

    Let's talk STONKS

    Have you heard about the big kinda socialist Reddit vs Hedge Funds fight over GameStop stock via RobinHood? Are you confused? We get into that here. We also talk about plague wine windows. And, as always, some weird banter. We like it weird.

Tons of Talking

What Are We Talking About? blends conspiracy, crime and the general strange and macabre with humor. Just snapshotting their recent episodes, they cover everything from (most recently) the Mariana Trench to Reptilian conspiracy theory. The hosts are both entertaining as well as informative. They seem like they’re genuinely having a blast, and it comes across to the listener, like you’re listening in on close friends having deep dive conversations. They also enhance their own commentary with research relevant to the topic at hand. Give them a listen and subscribe now! This show deserves your time.

It is an ok pod cast.

They do a good job of researching. An ok job at relating the topics and they pick good topics. The down side is they have brought race into episodes that is has no reason to be in. We also don’t care about what you are drinking. That is not why we listen to a podcast like this. Same goes for the random banter at the beginning.
