  • Owner’s Own Show “wow”

    Rita is just an empty headed barbie and WABC owner “Cats” is totally incoherent and unlistenable talking with all that jizzglop in his throat, just plain awful!

  • Impressive Guests

    Rita seems really nice but she is not a good radio interviewer. Takes up so much time asking a question the giving a lot of commentary around the question instead of letting the expert guests answer the question. Someone needs to sit with her while listening to the podcast and correct her missteps. Think she could quickly learn how to fix this problem because it is getting hard to listen
