  • Declining in Quality

    Bryan Hayes and the O’Dog are great and drive content and light listening that’s funny and knowledgeable. Noodles and guys like Luke Willson ruin the show unfortunately. They’re always offended, they never provide a positive take or any information at all, and they always seem to be in a race to be offended and play the victim, despite being the ones encouraging the negativity in the first place.
