Love this podcast!

I have always been a huge lover of all things Wisconsin and when looking for new podcasts I came about Wisconsin Drunken History. I’m working to section hike the Ice Age Trail and hike or bike all Wisconsin State Trails over my life and this podcast talks about areas of the state I know little about, helping provide info about history, things to do or where to get my brews in the next town I explore! I started listening last winter in 2021 and it is a regular podcast I’m always listening to when a new episode comes out, keep the awesome content coming Russ and Eric!!

Unbearable

It's an excruciating thing to sit through. I've seen autistic children who are less distracted than these two morons.

Bring back the original app ,

Awful, I reiterarte, AWFUL

I’ll preface with I Really love Wisconsin. I’m born and raised here. I lost a few brain cells listening to these guys. I choose the Holy Hill episode to listen to. So much unnecessary cussing. They both seemed to know very little about the place. I CANNOT in any way or fashion recommend this to anyone. For these two bozos to represent Wisconsin is worse than watching Joe Barry’s defensive schemes. In all honesty, this podcast is very low quality. Don’t waste any minute of your day listening.
