  • Unlistenable

    The hosts are not engaging. Very sleepy.

    I’ve listened to two shows and won’t listen to anymore. The hosts apparently can’t help themselves from letting their political opinions not so subtly slip into reading the news.

  • Snarky old men

    Endless political whine from angry old men. I finally gave up after they claimed the NTSB was only posting on X which is a lie. That was after them discussing the DCS crash where they then claimed no one should play politics with the crash. The irony.
