  • Stop with the southern white woman voice

    I took two points off for the annoying way southern white women. You are over doing the joke. Saying white with a hard h is very annoying and it makes me skip 30 seconds of your show. After I skip for the third time I stop listening to that episode. I have not made it past minute seven on any of your episodes. I’m still here because I support and to beg you to stop. It’s like nails on a chalkboard.
