  • Hard to listen to

    IMHO a podcast should be easy to listen to. This is a mess. A big group of people talking, laughing, and giggling over each other is awful. Too many great wine podcasts to waste my time on this.

  • Overly political

    Have been listening to this podcast for years, I’ve enjoyed the content. Unfortunately, with different additions to the show, the content has become overly political and downright violent with rhetoric. No plans to follow the show anymore, very sad have enjoyed it. Please turn down the rhetoric and you may reach more audience members.

  • Matt & Brandon Podcast

    The rattling, talking, laughing and thumping noise created by Brandon hitting his hand on the table and the Smurf, mousy voice of Matt and the other gal, in the background made it unbearable to listen. Besides everything being so funny that wasn’t ( Must of been the buzz they all had going.) Couldn’t deal with it after 15 minutes and moved on to another podcast.

  • Brian Not Welcome Back

    I used to enjoy listening to the local banter about winemaking and viticulture, but today I got a diatribe from Brian about how evil our nation is and an antisemitic pro Palestine lecture. I will listen to other great shows about the wine industry and not this leftist promoting dialogue.
