Reviews

3.0 out of 5 stars from 4 ratings
  • Hosts seem disconnected, unaware, and out of date

    They make big statements but can’t really back up why they feel the way they do. They keep going back to “this is just the way things should be done,” and saying empty-minded platitudes like “I believe everyone should love their job.” Just another example of old ideas that are past their expiration date, find another podcast where the hosts have something to offer.
