  • Love the guys but disappointed

    Now that I know why I am only getting 60% of the show i understand. Thank you for 20 years of fun laughs and information. I give them both a lot of credit on teaching me how to look at things and ask questions. I will continue to enjoy the show for as long as you want to put it out.

    I noticed that your show has been cut short by over an hour? Have you changed your program or just an editing error?

  • Assumptions

  • Red Eye guys

    They cover all types of stories. They are honest to admit they don’t often understand certain political and economic trends but they resort to common sense to settle and solve most issues. Plus, they are funny
