- Lack of podcasts disappointing!
Why does this podcast continue to advertise on other podcasts if it doesn’t come out with new material. 1 1/2 months of material not enough to keep one interested. Only rating as a 3 due to lack of new material.

I’ve enjoyed this podcast, but I don't understand why Postmedia is still pushing ads for it when there haven't been any episodes released for six months. It's kind of annoying; like make up your mind.
