5 stars.
I love The Midnight Air! Five stars for soothing me to sleep like a lil baby. Huge fan of DVK and happy he shares his sense of humor and compassion with us. Loving the variety of content across episodes (a deep dive on the history of the American Diner?? Golden!!). Still get a dose of Pen Pals over on Patreon and you should too!
Yes, I miss Pen Pals, but this is a perfect replacement! I can still talk, joke, and shout out loud along with Daniel. Calming, funny, and entertaining!
