  • Great news coverage, but… one request

    Hey, love the coverage, and appreciate the different personalities on the show. Would you guys be able to add a single episode with all of the daily episodes bundled into 1? Or is it more of a business strategic reason as to why you do segmented episodes completely? Transparency would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work
