Usual hosts

How do you start the pod without mentioning the usual hosts are gone. Talk about poor reporting on your part.

Hope the Pod Continues!

I didn’t realize I never rated the show and heard the news on episode 118 about John’s new gig. Hopefully it can work out that both Andrew and John can continue the pod going as is. The information they share and opine on is so interesting and their chemistry is great.

What happened

These new guys are informative but they aren’t as interesting and entertaining as Marchand and Outland.
