  • Get on with it

    Good podcast but 1/4 of each podcast episode is intro and chit chat. Have a purpose and get on with it!

  • Too Much Commiseration

    I love the theolog, interviews, and PCA news enough to give it 5 stars, but please just stick to that stuff. The silliness is a bit much, especially when discussing serious topics.

  • Great music

    The eclectic music selections are unironically the best part of Presbycast. Usually a good assortment of guests, but I could do without hearing from RS Clark ever again.
