  • Constant forced attempts at comedy.

    Very informative guys. I’d enjoy the show far more if they stuck with informing but they try to wedge jokes into just about damn near every sentence. It’s a struggle to listen. Not for me.

The combination of hysteria 51 and blurry photos could have been good as both John and Dave are best with cohosts but now the show is just halfhearted talks about random topics when it used to be, both shows used to be focused on an actual topic of a spooky or controversial nature with in depth research. Now it just seems like a desperate attempt to keep it going. I really wish bot... more
