I wish Andy would stop complaining all the time about everything. Please just stick to the topics. Chris puts his complaints about politics or the Warner Bros. merger into some context but Andy blathers on any chance he can get and it’s getting worse. Poor Andy even complained several times about recording on MLK day. Enough, please.
I never miss an episode even if I skip parts about shows I don’t follow or have an interest in. A very good podcast to listen to if you like to stay in touch with the zeitgeist.
Why so awful lately with politics???? What a bummer, you used to just talk about what the show is supposed to be about - television. I came here to escape from the ugliness. Another Ringer unsubscribe :(
Shut up about politics and stick to reviewing movies and other things.
Enough already. We get it Andy. You’re a liberal. And you think your opinion is all that matters. My goodness get out of the Hollywood bubble. A shame coz I really like these guys, especially CR. Think after years of listening I’m finally ready to call it quits. Thanks for the good ride.
