  • I mean yeah there's plenty of space for this generally. Pretty weird and big jarring-shift-in-tone energy to have discussion of political and business scams/practices and then ads for fucken menu log. It touches my cringe ceiling so cheers but no thanks.

  • Stop interrupting the guests

    Good content and I know it’s your show but I’m there for the guest. It used to be called good manners or being polite, it’s still worth doing. And your podcast would be more informative and interesting.
