New Podcast Episode: Celebrities Letting Us Down

by

Somebody told me that my podcast with Josh features too much complaining and negativity.

First of all, what do you expect from two middle-aged gay men? It’s in our DNA to complain.

But also, have you seen the state of the world? There is a lot of material to complain about!

Episode 33 of the moan-a-thon is out now for your watching/streaming pleasure on YouTube:
