The ads dropping mid sentence is not ok and the patreon does not have enough content to justify the price. Combined with the ability to avoid the ads, it’s still too expensive. It’s getting hard to continue supporting this. Shame, as similar to QK, I used to enjoy it.

Apple Podcasts5Klash_ukUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Like it a lot but….
I like these guys and I enjoy the podcast, but it feels bitty and hard to follow when it’s all in different parts. They seem to be off a lot with repeats played, and the subscriptions seem steep for what they’re actually giving the listener.

Canada3 months ago - Irritating, meandering nonsense. Not even amusing.
Do they ever talk about the advertised subject? With less than 20 minutes left they were still talking about anything but, amid a sea of ads including endless ads for their Patreon. Utterly tiresome.
