    I love Zuby’s calm and common sense podcast. He has terrific guests and shines a light on the absurdity of wokeness and the main stream media’s narrative.

  • Eclectic Content Mix

    I’m not in the expected demographic for Zuby’s content (I’m an elderly woman.) He has great interviews & insight for young men (finance, fitness, relationships.) I follow Zuby for his interesting interviews about politics & some health & science news. Of the interviews that pique my curiosity, I’m disappointed when the show ends too soon!

    You had Nate Lewis on your show? His advice was awful as a parent and once you dig into his story stuff doesn’t add up.

  • No Bryson

    Sorry but the Bryson Gray interview was cringeworthy and downright embarrassing. His constant use of “You know what I’m sayin” and the lack of proper grammar turned me off. I had to turn it off. Sorry Zaby. I love you but this interview was an epic fail. With the money Bryson made from his music, he could have invested in a speaking coach.
