  • SHUT UP, ELLIOT!!!!!!

    I used to listen quite a bit, but the fact that Elliot is always interrupting and yelling over Ricky got to be too much for me. He’s not even funny or has his thoughts fully together as he’s doing it. Elliot, please learn to shut your stupid mouth.

  • Good but political

    Not really that many Weird News exclusive shows and in that respect this does a good job showing the weird news.

    On the negative it’s just a Republican bashing. If you are going to present yourself as news and do politics at least be more neutral.

    Also stick to mainly the weird news not the weird political news
