  • So funny

    I’ve noticed that Chase mispronounces names a lot. Herb Baumeister? Like herbs and spices. Herb is short for Herbert. The H is not silent. It’s not Erbert. He once did a whole podcast calling someone named Yvonne, - Yeevonne. That aside I love this podcast.

  • Love it

    Love the nonchalant way Chase presents his facts. He’s got a smooth delivery and the show is obviously well researched and written. Perhaps Chase should write a children’s book based on one of the episodes…. Orrrr maybe not
