  • The whole feed is Paywalled

    So tired of these cash grabs. $50/yr for ad-free is ridiculous in and of itself, but to taunt listeners with “here’s what you can’t listen to unless you cough up cash” is tasteless. If you want to make all the “good” stuff only available for paying listeners, then set up a separate feed just for them. more
