  • Insufferable hosts

    I'm eight minutes into my first episode, and I've unfollowed the series. I cannot listen to those two morons say the same thing again and again and again. Their voices even, are unbearable, particularly one of them, it's scraggly and I'd rather listen to nails on a blackboard

Lots of love from Brasil!
