Awesome. educational and funny.

Gosh I really, REALLY wanted to love this podcast. Literally gave it SO much time to mature, but it just wouldn’t. The stories are great, the hosts are fine, but the juvenile giggling, over Everything, just finished it.
I’ve been really enjoying your podcast, fellas. Your easy casual conversation makes the (this) listener feel involved in the dialogue. Your kindness for critters and humans is appreciated and a refreshing distraction from what’s happening around parts of the globe.
Thanks, boys
