  • Great relatable duo

    I thoroughly enjoy the podcast. Jake and Kris make a great pair with a balance of perspective. But for the love of god, Joel Feder is insufferable, please minimize his appearances. He sounds like a child thatthatthatthatthat skipped his Ritalin and thinks his opinion is fact. I can’t be alone in skipping the episodes where he is “featured”

    He’s got a voice for writing. He should stick to that, I’ll continue to not read any of it anyway

  • Entertaining idiots

    Lots of fun if you like to listen two a couple of idiots rant about **** they know very little about. How could it go wrong? Just remember it’s entertainment and that these two in no way should inform your perspective on anything and you’ll be fine.
