    Ugggg….Tom, I love the Dice Tower but i rarely listen if there are more than 2 people on the show at a time. If I do end up listening my finger hovers over that 30 second fast-forward button on my iPhone. With 3 or more hosts (especially with Joey or Chris) it turns into a morning zoo with everyone trying to “out-funny” each other with insufferable jokes and inside references that NOBODY gets. I’m giving 2 stars because i think that’s your sweet spot of hosts.
