  • Give them some slack guys. They are trying their best

    This podcast is ai. There voices sound different every episode and some of the facts aren’t even real. And there voices will sometimes get messed up during the show. But they in the description they did state that they are ai and that they have there reasons and they are trying there best so….. I like it otherwise.
