  • Get to the point

    If you want to have a friendly chat call the person and talk on the phone. If you have a podcast with a specific topic get and stick to, the points. Listeners have limited time. It’s a waste of time to listen to extra chatter. WAAAAY to much b.s. on this show

  • Seriously disappointed

    Why stop podcasting the original GMP show?? If you wanted to add content, fine… or you could start another channel!!! Also background noise/chatter makes this unlistenable.

  • Useless waffle

    The presenter decides to talk about obtaining a visa and guess what, never gets to talk about the visa but thinks let’s talk about how was your weekend and isn’t it a lovely day, waste of time, but then again I think the poor fool has been in manjana land for too long, LOL
