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!
Fun interesting and we learn stuff!

I love the way these guys are such great friends that they finish each other’s sentences and laugh at each other in such a kind but witty way. They have great podcast voices and make me feel like a friend.

Josh seems like a great and well spoken guy to have on this podcast, mix it with chucks selfish spoken personality, makes a hard listen sometimes. Personal opinions only. The show itself is helpful and fun.
