    Why do you make a show about something you obviously hate everything about? What a sad way to live.

  • Awful

    Two man children pretending to work by telling their parents they have a podcast (so they aren’t forced to get real jobs). They will tell you how horrible the game is not having played it for months, all while burping and farting into the microphone. Save yourself the trouble.

  • Sub par- deadbeat podcast

    Run by a redneck who has nothing good to say, and only curses to express himself. Wonder why this podcast is dead. Let Tanner lead, he’s the proper host for this podcast. Get rid of the redneck trash.
