You make my days better!

Love you guys. At the start of my day, or if I listen at the end of my day, you make me happy, keep me informed and teach me life lessons. Thank you so very much.

Good source of info

I’ve listened to this podcast for a number of years. I find it a good source of what’s happening politically. One thing I’ve been noticing lately, however, is the constant utterance of the phrase, “my friend” by AG. The last episode I listened to I counted it 11 times during a chat with one guest. My eyes are going to end up in the back of my head for all the times I’m rolling them.
