Customer Reviews
The best
I listen to a lot of news podcasts in the morning (okay, is 5 a lot?) and without a doubt Start here is the clearest, most easiest to understand. They get to the heart of an issue, (and yet make it fun to listen to too). If ever I am unclear about the latest bruhaha going on, I never worry, because I know by the time I listen to Start here, I will not only understand it, but will have had a chuckle about it too
Hot Take
If Idiocracy had been made about effeminate men and manly women, it would be this podcast. The out right lies and propaganda don’t get to me, it’s the whining of the host’s voice. I think YOU will like it, though.
Morning routine
Love listening to your show every morning! You give me talking points for my day if I need any conversation starters with my clients 😊
