  • Terrible podcast

    One guy is a loud mouth with nothing interesting to say and keeps repeating himself. They bring in Derrick Young and his audio is so low that you have to increase the volume a few decimals but when the loud mouth starts saying in between it blasts the audio so high that it is impossible to keep listening. Horrible content and the set up. The content presented here is absolutely horrendous and not worth anyone’s time. Stay away from this one.
