  • Terrible podcast

    These guys are horrible, chewing on every little thing like cockroaches just to prolong the podcast. Very little useful information provided by these clowns. There are other better sources out there, stay away from this garbage. Truly useless and pointless information provided here.

    Truly pathetic and shameful repeating every little thing over and over again.
