  • Great show for smart people!

    I’m sad about the time change and the shows aren’t dropping quick enough. It’s Wednesday late afternoon, when will we get the drop for Wednesday morning show?

    This is basically my go to show now to find out what’s going on in the world. I love the balance of current events, politics, and laugh out loud humor. John has somehow created the perfect mix. It’s also a show that tries to focus on positive versus negative, and pretty sure it will save me during this upcoming election. Listen and learn!... more

  • Another Dr Tracey Melee

    Some shows bring on antagonists for ratings, this show doesn’t really seem like that kind of show, but this keeps happening so I’m scratching my head. Why not have a weekly Kendall session? There would at least be an element of charm.
