    What’s with the inconsistency in posting podcasts? Today was the first since Wednesday. The content is good but unfortunately we only get to hear when you all choose to post. Pretty weak for such a big station.

  • Enjoy them while we can

    Mark and Dusty are smart, funny, witty, and their compradore is fantastic. They’re my favorite duo in Oklahoma radio, and I like to consume their content in podcast form when I can’t listen live. They bring on really good guest and the regulars Jake Trotter, Royce Young, and Adam Amin are must downloads. Hope you decide to check them out!
