  • Absurd Joke

    A friend of mine told me she stumbled upon this podcast and said I should listen just to prove her point that any talentless person can launch theirs. This woman must have a rich old man who buys her these guests. Her reactions are so contrived and the head bobbing is intolerable. What an embarrassment for these guests to go on this show.
