I’ve been listening to these guys for almost 20 years now, but I think it’s clear their hearts just aren’t in it anymore. I get it. It’s a long time to do anything.

Alex just said he hates this country. I honestly can’t bear his liberal BS anymore, it’s too bad cause Brad and Vinny are cool but Alex just can’t keep politics out of it. Unsub
I’ve listened to these guys for decades and I finally admitted to myself that I don’t like this show.

Their tastes gravitate toward tedious games, and then they complain about minutia they find annoying in sp... more
