I was looking for more podcasts that were clean. It was hard. I had listened to all of the GenZ media podcasts and a few other ones and then I FINALLY found Limelight!!
Apple Podcasts5Mooshplayz99United States4 months ago - Tepid and terrible
Limelight always seems like it’s an engaging show but ends up with some of the worst and half-baked endings that disappoint and really make you unsubscribe. The Wild valley in particular, the horrible apologetic for white supremacy and deeply propagandist. Just skip this dreck.
