- Grumpy … but entertaining
The information is solid, but I listen each week to hear the biting sarcasm and anti-squirrel soliloquies. I like the short format too. Should be done all year. I miss it when there is no new content.
Update: Why just Wednesday and just through end of April?
Makes me grumpy myself!
No podcast in several weeks?
