That's what was great about the show and, unfortunately, what has been lost. You don't need a ton of yes men chiming in to simply affirm your retarded and ill informed opinion of a topic, you just need to talk about shit in life, on the news, etc.
I think it's too bad but I agree that they are checking out at this point. Chad is making bank with his current gig so why are they killing themselves on this podcast? They've devolved into calling RTH the free show (and it's god awful) and a simple recording of another show the paid show.
