    Absolutely fascinated by the other reviews crying over a TOTALLY OPTIONAL Patreon

    They already give us 2 free episodes a week! Imagine leaving a bad review bc a funny well produced show would like to give people the option to support it financially!

  • No longer in it for life

    I wrote a review read out on the pod in the early days. I loved this pod.

    Suddenly though they’re calling me a freeloader and telling me to spend money on their content. They’re making me feel guilty because I haven’t got the excess income to pay for the extra episodes.

    I feel sick.

    This has led me to unsubscribe. You had a beautiful thing and you got greedy.

    I’m sorry.
