  • Too judgmental

    Not listening too your Podcast anymore! You did great with Kouri Richie’s Trial coverage! However, can you say judgmental regarding the Duggar coverage! Have some compassion for both sides until this is tried in court!

  • Kant

    Loved that you brought in Kant to the conversation, this is why I listen. To think deeply so that I may know by way of really understanding instead of just spewing AI generated sounds bites. Kant’s epitaph: the moral law within and the starry sky above. (The last scene in season 1 of True Detective was about just that).
