    I usually look forward to this show. Especially how sharp and funny the co hosts and guests are. BUT the hate they showed to Meghan Sussex was off putting. Especially since I too love bird song and cook, can, and garden.

Tara and Sarah are excellent hosts because they have a long career in television journalism and commentary so when they talk about TV they analyze its components, the mechanics behind the components, and its context in TV history. To me, this elevates the podcast from a simple “I did/did not like it” review show. When Dave talks about tv, it’s almost always in terms of his li... more
