Customer Reviews
Very interesting.....
Who knew?? I found these podcasts to be very interesting and informative. It's refreshing to know that there are people out there who care enough to inform us of interesting facts that fuel our brains rather than the typical trash that floods us daily. Does anybody really care which celebrity went into rehab this week? This makes for much more interesting conversation around the "water cooler". Not to mention that it makes you sound smart :) Keep up the good work!
Great show! I’ve been listening since I was 7!
I love this show so much, and Josh and Chuck are nice. I like that they take the time to research random things like Korean fans or squirrels. I could listen for hours.
Correction
Southwest Airlines acquired AirTran in 2011 not Delta :)
