What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I appreciate two hosts. They report and discuss in a mature manner that is different than what is meta in 2025. It’s more catered to a mature crowd. One of the hosts is a bit of a Debbie Downer though. They sound depressed and are always making it clear how “poor” they are. It’s kind of annoying. Overall a decent podcast that is produced nicely.
