    It’s never boring only a little annoying. It’s Penn’s Sunday School. I almost always get a few chuckles out of this show. Usually don’t get any useful info. I did stop listening for a while when it was Trump all the time. I’m glad that’s over. Hopefully it doesn’t come back regardless. Spread the love. Oh it adds enjoyment if you picture Penn naked while listening.
