Loved the last couple episodes of the new format - keep going!
Love listening to you Cody and enjoy all your posts and podcasts. Thanks.
The News sister show is great (on the basis of the first episode). Yes, it’s good two guys making each other laugh (as that is The First Law of Podcasts), but the premise is really good.
The only way I want to consume my news!
