  • Cannot listen anymore

    Show has so much going for it, however Mike is unbearable. He is arrogant, interrupts everyone, and makes a great show unlistenable. It’s unfortunate because Jesse is phenomenal.

  • Hard to tell a difference in episodes

    Same barely researched discussions every week. Same unfunny interruptions and gloating about being right. Same repetitious pre-arranged guests/ads for new eBay live sellers. Wish Mike would just stop doing the pod if he cares so little about it.

  • Would be better if the midget just stopped showing up permanently

    I have taken to only listening to the recordings that do not have the malignant dwarf in an “on air” speaking role. Show is best when it’s not all about how one host demonstrates ego compensation for not being adequate in his childhood nor adult life. We get it you buy big cards with big money and if you don’t hobby your way it’s wrong. Yawn. The one working the Buffoon gimmick is actually more relatable and charming
