  • Redundant shows delivered via this subscription

    Be prepared when you subscribe to this podcast to get the same content sent to you multiple times. You will not only each hour of the radio show (which is great), but you will also get some of that same content repeated in separate episodes. That is highly annoying and seems to be unique to KXNO podcasts. I don't know if the do that to artificially pump up their download stats or not, but it has to stop. The shows are too great to abuse loyal listeners in this way, therefore the one star rating.... more
