- It’s ESPECIALLY, not EX-PECIALLY
Dear God, I know PL is just a content farm but Adam Howe has been doing this show for years and he still can’t pronounce “especially,” which is doubly awful because it’s a massive crutch word for him.

I like listen each Sunday evening to On the Wire. The fun these guys are having is audible. Lots of information, but they take their time rather than rushing from player to player.
