  • Great show great commentary

    I have been listening to this show for almost as long as it has been available. I love the episodes, the history. I really like Adam’s commentary. He gives great back ground and framing to the episodes. Just like everyone, I have favorite shows and less favorite shows, but I appreciate what I learn from each. It’s part of the entertainment value for me. The nasty critiques of Adam’s voice are like nails on a chalkboard to me. Give me a break. I chose this podcast because of what he adds. If I on... more

    I love the show but I find the host’s voice and commentary annoying. I do appreciate him saving commentary until the end of the show but I still have to hear his voice prior to the show.

  • Can’t Stand Voice

    I enjoy the shows but have to be quick to mute the voice of host Adam Graham. His voice reminds me of nails on a chalkboard. Can’t stand it. It can really ruin the show knowing I have to listen to him talk and talk before the show and then blather on once the show is over.
