    Esmeralda is so uninteresed. Sorry but it sounds like your co-host at the end of each podcast is so bored or at the least not at all up to speed to pop culture like Nick is, which makes for awkwardness. Also, for the good of mankind, please have your movie reviewers review popular mainstream movies people actually watch instead of movies that played for a day at a festival.

    Nick, while you are entitled to your opinion and to talk how you want on your podcast. I seriously wish you would stop mocking and making fun of Christianity. Just because you do not know anything about it and what you might know is based on media coverage doesn’t mean you should cutting anyone down or making fun of them. You presuming a movie is going to be a “train wreck” just because of the people being “crazy” is just wrong. You considering someone is crazy because of their beliefs is wrong.... more

  • Stop with the Effin’ Jingles!

    The show opener is good, but too many jungles is a bad thing especially when the jingles go on and on and on. Maybe a few bars that match the show opener, to establish continuity between segments or guests. Even 5 seconds is painfully too long and wack-a-doodle..
