  • Great show, keep up the good work

    Awesome show, been listening for many years. I see too many podcasters give up and I just wanted to thank you for your hard work and dedication. You have made commutes, road-trips and restless nights great again. If you want to learn about flood tide carp fishing on the Colorado river, lmk. The river goes from 100cfs to 2500-4000cfs daily in my neck of the woods in Texas and all the 15-30 lb big boys go up into the flooded grass. Check me out IG @johnnyiswright

  • Needs better equipment

    I have three gripes with this podcast - first and foremost, the sound quality is terrible. This would have been par for the course in 2011, but podcasting has come a long way, and it doesn’t have to sound like you’re listening in on a long distance telephone call with a bad connection anymore. Second, the interviewer is CONSTANTLY interrupting his guests (maybe due to a lag?). Over and over, the guest will be mid sentence and dropping some good info, and then they’ll get interrupted, awkward pa... more
