  • Commercials are TOO LOUD

    Maybe you guys need the money but the volume on the commercials should be turned down! Your show is well produced so why can't you manage turning Down the commercials!!

    Makes your production seem cheap. Commercials turned up so loud are very invasive and tell your advertisers the only thing we wanna do is turn your podcast off when we get invaded by a loud commercial!

  • Biased and woke basically the typical BBC

    Some things are accurate but most is linked to the woke, climate crisis, false science where guests have financial benefits from controlling the climate scam and other woke messages. Sad the presenter is involved he would be good if was able to remove himself from the BBC cult messages
