  • Feed spam disrespect.

    Apparently this is mostly a tool to shove other podcasts into your feed.

    There are far more “bonus” and “you might like” episodes than real episodes. Sad that a show with so much potential would sell out to this extent. What happened to caring about the content and the audience?
