  • Love the Variety of Guests

    I appreciate how you talk to everyone but sometimes you interrupt the guests so much you don’t let them get their point across. One example is Monica Church’s public transportation pitch.

  • High quality, low effort

    I appreciate the focus being put on Idaho but Matt’s approach of “just asking the questions” doesn’t do him any favors. Conversations are often one-sided and he is easily convinced of what his guests say, regardless of the veracity of their claims.
