  • Good show

    Good show. Too much laughing. So much so that it’s distracting. Not that I need my leftist podcast super serious all the time, just tone it down a bit.

  • Plz compress me bro

    Tommy, I know that’s u that edits this thang. Plz compress it so it’s all one volume, the spikes make my speakers go hammer ( not good ) . Put down the gears of war , and boot up audacity and get it done mane.

    Other than that, love this podcast . Tommy carrys this whole podcast on his back. Tyler the tankie always has me laughing. The Italian guy is there I guess and the lady on this podcast balances it out. Overall 5 stars and thanks for helping me pass time at work. Now that’s solidarity !
