  • So nearly perfect

    The Mooch is so extremely well read and his guests experts in their fields, and this leads to some truly outstanding conversations. But alas, this mad desire to keep this short form spoils what could be otherwise in depth content. It keeps it too light to the point of almost being glib. Let them talk until the conversation runs its course xxx

  • So far loving the pod

    I am so sick of long meandering pods. This is not one of those. And I love the book focus with the quick pace. My one complaint is because of these pods I am quickly using up my credits on my Audible account to purchase the books you review!! Just kidding! Thanks for the effort!
