PODCAST REVIEW
Super Fan
September 18, 2020
I have watched since the beginning and I now have my wife Christina asking if the next episode is ready. I don’t agree with everything they talk about but what they do is promote a conversation that allows you to see different sides. There knowledge base is vast and what they might not know they can easily get on the fly, I love to hear about there life’s ups and downs. I feel like I am in the room listening to them banter back and forth.
If you haven’t been following start, well worth the time.
Thank you for helping me become a smarter and better human being
