  • Aspirational Five Stars

    I was listening to episode 001 and Hunter said to give the show five stars to help out and then revisit this opinion in a year to see how I feel then and it was a convincing argument. It’s a good show y’all. Now if you made the mistake of reading this I hope you have a good day.
