- Awesome pod
Love the banter and stories. Came from NPAD. Got my gals and guys now. Hope yall do more podcasts together.
Also, finding the angry ratings talking about yall being pro Palestine is so funny. I find usually people who care about earth, animals, etc, usually are on the right side of history. Keep going guys.

Very informative podcast that takes tough subjects and makes them accessible and fun while also providing valuable info. Mike, Jeff, and Wes work well together, bring different perspectives and make the podcast very enjoyable.
As far as their stance on Palestine, I appreciate people with a spine that don’t like genocide. So keep it up guys, don’t back down. The opinion of people who approve of the slaughter of an entire people doesn’t amount to anything.

Is this an animal podcast or a go Palestine podcast? Get it together boys. Or rebrand or something. At first, I enjoyed Wes’ expertise but they keep pushing ideologies. Lean any more to the left boys and you’ll never see the grizzly coming.
Apple Podcasts1Chaaalie and Snoop!United States23 days ago - Wes the pedant
Love the podcast, but Wes needs to stop correcting the others so much. I can understand that he should do it occasionally if they’re completely wrong. But he goes away over the top and he’s constantly correcting them over pedantic things, when they’re just saying something funny or that’s their opinion. It’s annoying.

I really enjoyed the show at first, and found it funny and informative, but I can no longer tolerate the boy’s positive sentiments towards the propaganda of “Palestine” and Socialism. It’s just not in good taste to back ideologies that are responsible for the deaths of millions of people worldwide.
