  • My favorite podcast!

    One of the few podcasts that I’ve stuck with throughout the years. It’s my favorite! I love diving into the fringe with Willy on topics I love but also on topics I’ve never even thought of. I also love getting checked by Wade being that I’m a 5 on the Wow scale.

  • It doesn't seem like anybody today can be friends with someone who has different beliefs besides family. I just think you should be able to have conversations with anyone about anything without getting pissed off (though over the 10 years - the hosts have had about 4 big blowups in front of a guest which was awkward... ) Paranormal and conspiracy topics. well they say contemporary mythology now. it's been a long 10 years. cheers
