  • Insufferable Bozos

    Two insufferable bozos who rely on "Harvard" name dropping while pushing a very one sided agenda, all while showing they have imposter syndrome.

  • “Like…”

    Oh my word, try as I may, I could not plod through Edith Zimmerman saying, like”, for the nth time…the interviewer threw in his share, too. Hopefully that habit is fixable. Excruciating.

  • This episode made no sense

    The episode was positioned as how to not let work dominate your life and it was never that. It instructed people on how to form a union, became chaotic around climate change and then started talking about grief. It made zero sense
