  • Short & useless episodes now

    The pod used to dive deep & give some insightful info, but I think he’s just phasing this podcast out of his priority list. I’m finding the super short episodes to be really focused on a certain demographic & politics matter to this guy. Also his views are so gross from a female POV. I just cannot even try to listen to this anymore. Big YUCK
