  • Good show

    I never miss an episode of Jimmy’s show (unless of course there’s fake wrestling involved.) And even though as a Veteran I wanted to punch him in the face when he said he doesn’t root for Team USA at the Olympics, i’ll still keep listening, at least the end with Sal.

  • Jimmy and Sal are great together

    Jimmy always has great guests who he has great conversation with, you feel like he’s friends with everyone. Sal Licata is great as well. Jimmy’s reaction to Sal having seen “Hamnet” was great I would have done a spit take if I was drinking

  • Ben Koo

    The Ben Koo pod was excellent. I never understood exactly what Awful Announcing is so this pod was a Master Class. It was so interesting to hear Ben’s approach to handling what to post and his views on different topics. Tirana Thought with Sal is always great.
