i barely listen to Combat anymore, im not checking for his lil buddy who talked like once every episode. you gotta bring some unique heat to the table or its :bushes:
I stopped listening to CJ almost a year ago. At this point, as far as "Hip-Hop" pods go, all I listen to is:
The Brilliant Idiots (for the comedy and the social/pop-culture talk)
Juan Epstein (for good interviews with OGs and people who aren't on press-runs)
A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal (only if I'm interested in the guest so not every ep)
Drink Champs (since it feels like OGs really let loose in front of someone they trust in NORE)
Every other pod is either hosted by people I don't like (Budden, CJ, Rap Radar) or is just people interviewing artists on current press-runs and asking generic questions that reveal generic answers.
If you watch Breakfast Club and Hot 97 interviews there's really no point in listening to a podcast with those same guests because TBC and Hot97 are basically podcasts with video.
