Love this podcast. Hilarious and so important!!
The good news is I just bought two of your T-shirts and I’m wearing them proudly. The bad news is you’re getting off-topic. Please return to things related to friendship for men. That’s what drew me to you and you’re getting way off topic. The idea of your podcast is admirable and appreciated. Please return to your purpose with the podcast. Thank you.
