  • Lame

    Starting with the episode focused on Scarface, I wanted to relax, tune in & enjoy hearing some folks bantering about some of my favorite movies & bring back some memories. Instead I get some dorky goofballs who are under the impression that anyone wants to hear their asinine viewpoints & opinions on politics. Quickly unsubscribed & recommend others don’t bother wasting their time & skip this buffoonery altogether.
