    New Comment: Boooooo!! You brought back ads!!! Boooo!! 1/2 star. Old Comment: Thank you for No Ads this week — up- your stars from 1 to 5. I’ve listened to these dudes for years on the radio, but after being by exhausted by CHED and Ads, and now with Global and ads on the podcast - at start AND partway through, I think I’m going to stop subscribing and listening. There’s better things to listen to than your ads. 5 stars to 1. Boo.
