  • I want to support the show but. . .

    Lost interest. Jed is not good enough at his job to pull off the schtick that he’s going for. It gets old fast. Mike is vanilla and not the brightest. I’m not the audience for this. Casey is missed.

  • Solid

    If Jed and Mike started a podcast I would unsubscribe from this one and listen to every show of theirs. Unfortunately AK Lee and Casey Lidon are often on the shows and they’re pretty insufferable, they constantly make things political and are just overall an annoyance on an otherwise reliable podcast.
