That new theme is God awful 😂
how old is this? Tony mentioned Cody being backstage at the Gorilla position???
if you cant take a german, learn how to pumb?
love that Danhausen!
I do not like the new theme music!!!! it's horrible!!! just putting that out there.. ...
Thanks, enjoyed it.
44 Mins of that voice!!!! lol! I'mma listen 👂
By far one of my top 3 podcasts! Marko Stunt would be a great interview in my opinion.
he talks like he just did a big ass line of "NO NO SNOW"
I agree, Orange Cassidy please
Kris Statlander sounds like such a fun person to be friends with. A very entertaining episode.
These podcasts aren't long enough! Get Orange Cassidy on the next one damnit!
Shut up, Aubrey!
i hate 😤 Le DUB!!
Aubrey interrupts a bit much, not really advancing the conversation. Tony let's the guest story tell.
Cody really has a kind heart. His sincerity and repertoire with Tony Schiavone (albeit they don't know each other well) is great to listen to.
Mox is always a great interview.
