- Used to love it
I really used to love this pod and really like Wolfie and Tim and liked Zach (before he left)as well, but Carlyn has to go. She thinks people are bad just because of their politics.

United States12 days ago - Discussion quality has declined
Don’t do a podcast for a show that you clearly don’t like. They complain about EVERYTHING now, and are like thank goodness, shorter episodes! I was listening because I love the show in general, and would expect people that podcast about it to love it as well. Doesn’t mean you can’t be critical, but they are so whiney. And the girl has to force the guy to participate like he’s in school.

Why does it seem like the pod delves deeper into the episode when Ryan is on than when the OG’s are on?
