I bought a used car on https://carcheckvin.com/ and now I listen to this podcast and pay attention. Yes, there's a lot of ads, but it doesn't bother me
The advertising is killing me. The dumbest ads I've ever heard. Mostly ads from the "My Cultera," podcast network. The Car Doctor ismy favorite podcast, but I'm finding it difficult to listen to when one 35 minute podcast has multiple 3-minute commercial breaks. The breaks are the dumbest clips, from idiotic shows, by retarded people. Their sentences are incoherent. They have no direction, just plain boring if not actually retarded.
"That's what they call education..." lol, love Ron!
This is a great episode!
