My favorite podcast

Gay except for Mike

I love all you guys so much. You make me feel not alone. Also – I cannot believe some of the whiny reviews left by people who want you to give them everything for free. They actually tried to compare you three regular guys to Netflix and Hulu…. lol. I’m very sorry some people just don’t comprehend how the world works and that there’s not free money that somehow pays Podcasters so you can do what you do without ads or subscriptions. Keep up the good work guys. You’ve got everything worked out just right at this point.

I came for the stories, stayed for the animal conservation education
