Podcast Addict5a month agoJGBlake- Love that it has not changed in decades
My dad used to listen to this show when I was a kid and I love that they still have the same music. It brings back so much nostalgia and I love that he was listening to this and I can do the same now and learn and also feel warm and cozy of those amazing memories. They make everything easy, easy digestible pieces so that a person can understand.

Love the show and listen daily, but for the past couple days I’ve had to listen on the website because the latest episodes aren’t appearing on Apple Podcasts.
Apple Podcasts5RumpydogUnited States2 months ago - Kai Ryssdal's voice is like butter
I'd listen to him read CSPAN transcripts all day long and he'd make them interesting. He is charming, engaging and has an uncanny knack for agreeing with us all about Starbucks pumpkin lattes, Katy Perry and cronuts. You will not regret subscribing to this podcast.
Also, the 2025 episode analyzing the decline of the American brand using data and economics was sobering indeed.
