  • Please fix audio levels

    Love the podcast but really wish the audio levels we louder because my earbuds are fine and in my car is fine but once I put it on my Bluetooth speaker that's when I can barely hear the podcast at all. I know it's the podcast because all my other shows I don't have this problem at all. Again love the podcast just wish it was louder.

  • Excellent Work

    You guys provide a distinct and needed platform that informs, entertains, educates and empathizes. Keep up the great work. One note: Your greatest challenge will be staying the same while also growing. Example: You all were pitch perfect in the Stephen A episode. The people who are criticizing have missed the point. Lots of transference and projection going on. Don’t let them change you. They will change in time.

  • Trash

    Ryan Clark is nothing more than a race baiter who runs his ignorant mouth before having all the facts (if any at all). He should be deplatformed at all costs, as people like him are the reason the majority of “social just warriors” are seen as nothing more than laughable.
