I can’t say enough nice things about the show. I’ve been listening for years and now I’ve got my teenager hooked on it as well. We look forward to listening to it every Sunday. I hope it lasts forever.

Longtime supporter of NWPR and listener to WWDTM. Now as podcast. Will not listen again if Dolce Sloan is on. She talks too much and sounds like she Is trying to perpetuate an unintelligent, poor stereotype of Black women. Not needed on this show.
Glad the Bob Cpstas episode chose to put the Charlie Kirk question at the end with no guest reaction or audience reaction. Was concerned that it would wind up earlier and the host and guests would do their usual make fun of the right schtick. Thanks for the decision.
I enjoyed this show for a long time but draw the line at mocking and booing our servicemen and women
