  • Billy

    Love these Bit held backs couple of stars due to the editing

    I get that BC may want to censor explicit words and phrases but a couple of episodes are almost unlistenable due to heavy-handed editing

    Funnily enough, lots of swearword slipped through anyways on some episodes

    Maybe AI has been put in charge of editing ??

  • Fantastic

    Really enjoy the interviews. Billy puts in more thought just to get the question out than the interviewees do in their answers. It’s seriously great.
