  • I tried, but I’m out

    I rarely review anything, but after listening to the recent Manson podcast, I’m out.

    The mispronunciations of names that have been spoken for 56 years tells me you’ve not listened to a single contemporaneous news report.

    If you can’t even correctly pronounce Spahn Ranch, how can we trust your facts?

    My ears are bleeding…

  • No clue

    No hate to the hosts but it seems like they just grabbed two random people off the street and had them read a ai-generated script to each other. They seem to have no clue what they’re talking about… respectfully.

  • Glad I found this podcast

    I normally don't enjoy two hosts because of too much banter but these two, although friendly, don't go off-track. The topics are well researched and well presented.
