  • Great podcast; when Vassy hosts

    Can we skip episodes instead of these awful stand in's? Absolutely unlistenable...I've tried many times to give them a try but spoken word isn't their thing. Please stick to Vassy only. Otherwise great!

    Where did they get Stephane Keys? It's like asking the janitor to step in when the OR doctor is on vacation. He is a complete clown. Cannot think on his feet and misses meatball after meatball. Dude, quit.
