Carl "The Dig" Diggler understands a lot of things. News. Politics. Culture. Elevator malfunctions. But there's one thing Carl just "gets" more than any other pundit, journalist or podcast host out there: the trials and tribulations of being a dad. From alimony to family court, nothing escapes Carl's keen insight and righteous anger. Disclaimer: I don't listen to podcasts on iTunes, but every podcast says it helps to rate and review them on iTunes so here I am.
Great satire of the political pudit.

I love BILLARDS FOOL! Great podcast. If you like Veep, you will love this podcast.
Boy would I ever love to see how a game of snooker between Dunkler and Billiards Fool would play out!
Carl "The Dig" Diggler is great. But you already know that. He's an incisive, erudite, and brilliant journalist with one of the most acclaimed careers in the business. So here's my question: who is "Virgil Texas," and why does Carl need him? Carl singlehandedly called the outcomes of something like 90% of the 2016 primaries. Virgil is just an entitled millennial who only feels secure when he's trying to undermine Carl. Newsflash, Mr. Hip Guy from Brooklyn: it isn't working. If you think you're b... more
but seriously fill my hole dig
