    Way too many ads. Yesterday these guys made 5 podcast all 15 minutes long with 10 minutes of ads. 50 minutes of ads in one day. Why can’t these guys just make 1 podcast. As of then I had them on auto download, had to turn that off my library is just stuffed with this show.

  • Why end with 10 min left?

    Love your podcast but it’s kind of a bait and switch! It says that the podcast is X minutes long, but you always end with about 10 minutes left in the podcast. I don’t understand this!
