  • Clowncast

    Each removed review will be worse than the other. There are too many ads that interrupt the conversation mid sentence or mid syllable. No one is listening to this dinosaur yak about absolutely nothing anymore.

  • A Downward Spiral

    The replays of old shows are good, but the new shows are awful! It’s listening to the remnants to a once great radio show - and podcast before Vic and Carl passed away - spiral into serious mental illness. The screaming, uninformed position on all things, and a so-called comic who isn’t funny make the show unlistenable. If it wasn’t for the old material I wouldn’t even pay any attention to it.

  • Unbelievable…bad

    This show is so bad. The exaggerated voices make no sense and are repulsive. There is attempt at comedy but the takes

    are bad. It sounds like a parody of a bad show.
