Awesome Dude Jim

Nope

The show itself is not a great listen, the host is just not a good interviewer and there’s not much of a hook to continue to download a show that’s clearly inferior to all the other similar shows out there.

Additionally the host spams and acts the fool on social media so it’s really hard to want to support someone so obnoxious who does not then show the talent required to overcome this behavior.
