    This is not hosted by real people. This is AI. You can tell by how they speak and interact. You can also tell by what they’re saying and the inaccuracies.

  • Disconnected

    This is an oddly hosted podcast with two people who feel wholly unfamiliar and disconnected from the show’s subject matter. The constant references to “the source” were awkward and made me believe that neither host had ever watched a single episode of Dutton Ranch. This feels like a lazy effort, at best.
