  • Oh dear, what has happened?

    Always has been an overcut podcast, but it has now devolved into a dime a dozen bloop-bloop bang-bang in your face, bouncing, rapid fire YT mashup.

    Christmas tree for Advent? How about Christmas tree for Christmas? And waiting well for Christmas (and the Christmas tree…)?

    And then destroyed by bloopers. At the end! Serious topic, and then ridiculous bloopers. Why? The topic wasn’t funny. Or was it all just a joke?

    So sad!

    Will no longer be listening. Support for Charlie Kirk? God doesn’t support racism and hate for differences.
