- I Googled how to paint Rhinoliner,
it is a multi step process, sand it after applying, degrease, prime with epoxy, then topcoat. I doubt all these steps were followed. The pool will have to be drained and proper steps will have to be taken. Many millions of dollars. You can’t cheap out on this.

United States3 months ago - Great Podcast!
I have been a long-time fan of MK Ham’s insightful, intelligent conservative commentary. Very refreshing to hear fun, but well grounded discussions on the political topics of the day from people with strong backgrounds who actually “touch grass”. Very glad the show is back!
Apple Podcasts5DG-USA-SouthUnited States4 months ago - The Best!
Vic and MK have the absolute best political commentary podcast out there! I really appreciate their honest take on current events. The back and forth banter makes me want to meet them for drinks-so much fun! 10/10 definitely recommend!!!

Apple Podcasts5cdale600United States5 months ago - 250 year old Original American Revolution documents by date
Great idea for helping me celebrate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution. Reading original documents with only basic explanations and no spin. I also enjoy the occasional laid back conversational news episodes by a couple of typical American parents who also happen to be media pros who demonstrate how to balance work life and also discuss news with a sense of humor and calmness (not rage!) and without going off the deep end as so many do (in both directions).
