    A fan for years and still a fan of cases covered. HOWEVER, the never ending lilt added to the end of every sentence or pause is wildly annoying. This wasn’t always the case but now it is constant.

  • The ads have gotten ridiculous

    I used to really like BMTC but the amount of ads have gotten insane. I get that they’re trying to make a living like the rest of us but they seriously take up half the length of the podcast now.

    There’s a hard line between opinions and facts. Unfortunately people become so self important when they’re given a platform, that line slowly becomes blurred. If you’re looking for an alternative podcast with less unrelated opinions, less ads and less F bombs I’d suggest “invisible choir”

  • 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

    Another excellent Small Talk episode. These things need to be shouted from the rooftops! Criminality, propaganda, pedophila, and disrespect for the law. Pardoning criminals, traitors, etc.. And illigitimate wars

    🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

    Thank you Thank you Thank you 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 🙏🏾

    And DEFINITELY YES… a political podcast… we need every voice to explain the descent of democracy, civility and peoples’ rights—- the importance of knowledge, the sciences, election laws.
