  • Disappointing

    Nick is awesome but Mikelle just brings too much negative energy to the podcast. Too much complaining about clients. Nick should start his own podcast with a different co-host.

  • Liked it better before

    As a longtime graphic designer, I don’t always agree with their take on things, but that’s fine. What isn’t fine with me are the sudden stream of F-bombs spewing from from the hosts’ mouths. If I can’t listen to it with my kids while driving, I won’t be listening at all. Sorry gang, but I’m done with it.
