  • Used to be good

    I used to enjoy the show when it first came out. I’d listen every day. Over the past few months, the advertisements now take up close to 45% of the show, 50% is now just pre recorded conversations from his other shows or news clips and only about 5% of actual commentary. I used to enjoy listening to Ben’s take on things, but the show barely has any of that any longer.
