    Very little original thought; seems like they’re scared to share an original opinion. Rehashed regurgitated.

    One of the highlights of the week is listening to the new episode each Friday. The great banter and trend-hashing never disappoint and always looking forward to many more.

    Also love the Sportscast segments, great way to mix it up!
