  • Am I the only one…

    Am I the only one that listens to this podcast that makes under $500k a year? Surprised there are no other reviews/comments after the 9/10/26 podcast. Totally alienated the middle class listener that loves their kids but definitely cannot afford $500/month for an app to help their young kids learn how to read. Tim seems a little out of touch with reality on this one.
