Smaegley · Jun 2024

I listen to this show every morning, and it just seems to have gone from an ad or two at the beginning and end to being relentless. In the beginning of episode 4866 I clocked almost 4 minutes. When I am jumping into my car and tuning in to listen, the last thing I wanna have to do is try to skip through ads to get to the content while I am driving. Statistic for those interested: ~27% of the of episode 4866 was ads.

Spladlesrus · Oct 2024

Having your female host opine at length about how “Kmart-alternative” Walmart is changing so much after she admits to never having been inside one ever got real cringe real fast. Tone felt out of touch and elitist. Either do your research or don’t filibuster about stuff you don’t know about.
