  • Loveable Muppets

    “We don’t know anything “

    From Bush’s mouth comes the truth about these two loveable muppets.

    They are entertaining with Richie constantly using the word ironic, when ironically it is not!

    Bush using his Star Wars references, “Leia getting a lift back to Alderaan just to find it an asteroid field “ , when she wasn’t even on the Millennium Falcon when this happened!

    Like I say , idiots that know nothing but very lovable idiots all the same.

    The one star is a rating of the production quality of the podcast.

    Could you please employ a producer to produce a professional quality podcast?

    If you don’t know what I mean, listen to this episode and a few Others, then you will understand.

  • Love the show/annoyed at production

    Love these guys. Good chemistry and fun to listen to if you’re around the same age. However, production is becoming worse. Occasionally two sound streams playing simultaneously and you can’t listen. Sometimes poor sound quality in general. Ironically it fits with their hap hazard style!! If you can sort the production values I’ll continue listening till you retire. If it gets worse I could bin it first!!!!
