    Get rid of Jeff. Boring. Humorless. Slow. Unimportant.

  • Trying too hard

    JP’s attempts at being fresh is overbearing. An example are his insistence that he refers to everyone by a modern sounding nickname. It’s a bore and immature.

  • Disappointing

    Used to like this show but it’s changed. JP is rude to callers if they don’t share his opinion, they hang up on callers, and B Mitch talks like fans are idiots. They’ve lost the ability to do an honest critique of the commanders.
