Then, they have ads interspersed throughout (to the tune of 4-5 thirty second ads) the rest of the podcast. And this is in a thirty minute cast!! 😀😀😀😀🤣🤣🤣 I love my dude, and I ain’t hating, just observing. Get your bag, Mr. S... more

    It’s great to hear family reminiscing about years gone by. My brother and my two sisters lost my dad two years ago and it does my heart good to hear siblings reminding each other of a simpler time or of a time they bonded together over a tough situation
