I have to ask about the 2nd appearance of Herb Powell. Haven’t you seen the episode where he returns and invents the baby translator?
Great and amazing show to listen to mention don’t love how they divert the conversation to wrestling but whatever. I do not like gay people so I listen to this with lots and lots of hopes they won’t divert the conversation to being married to a man. But I have an estranged father so like that they hate fathers.
These guys have Trump running through their brains 24/7. It’s hilarious to listen to the episodes after the 2024 election and hear them literally cry about it. Absolutely spineless liberal they/thems that can’t think for themselves.
If you like two self-entitled jerks complain about homeless people, while reminiscing about growing up with cruise trips and cable TV, then have I got the podcast for you! I even used to subscribe to their Patreon before I realized how disgusting the hosts had become. I love The Simpsons, but these guys make me sick.
Love the work you guys do… no idea what happened but for some reason all the episodes before 2024 just disappeared, no idea if it was just me or my silly app, I’ll try and check other places.
