Great hosts, great content!
Podcast Addict52 months agonixlyn- All I wanted but didn’t get …
All I wanted was to hear a review of the book 11/22/63 by Stephen King and about 40 minutes in, I STILL heard no discussion of the book. Instead I heard fowl language and liberal political bias. Never again.
