Apple Podcasts1Markb321United States2 years ago - Rhode Island Charlie
A blow hard who cuts people off and twists words. If he disagrees with you good luck getting a decent word in. Obviously has an agenda. Says he is after the truth but actually after his truth. I listen to try and hear both sides. Often call him names while listening because of the way he treats others. 3 star because I listen. 1 star and I would not listen.
Apple Podcasts3RI CharlieUnited States3 years ago - Rhode Island at its best and worst
Even though Gene has no idea how podcasts work I will give 5 stars for Tom. The show gives a daily report of domestic and international news with care and often sarcasm / humor. Well produced by a great cast of characters. The seagull army charges forward.
