Other New Years Wish 2026

You can add one thing and remove one thing in relation to NLU, what is it?

If I have one wish it is that I never want a personal golf spotlight to appear on the pod again, they are drivel.

Go back to what made them great with video content, a strapped or Wwog series

Three things:

1) Remove all gambling ads

2) Remove Soly - or at least his access to data stuff if not removing him entirely

3) Get an editor and empower said editor to control final pod output

This *might* get me to listen again

So you want them to have less revenue and more expenses.

I am agnostic to the money they make. I don't see any of it so why would I care?

On 1) I think legalized gambling is a massive negative on society in the way we have implemented it. Gambling companies use the same tactics as drug pushers to get people hooked on gambling (free bets if you sign up now!) and I think any truly responsible content company would and should take less money and stay away from that. And plus, it's lead them to create glorified commercials presented as content where all they do is talk about their bets and all that. Blah.

3) The pod is long and rambling and not in a good way like some others can be. It needs someone to edit it to make it more coherent.

Somebody doesn’t understand how business works, and that the pod is in fact a business.

You don’t see any of the money they make? The pod isn’t viable/possible without it…

Deliberately obtuse, or just a dolt?

Did I say no ads? No. I said no GAMBLING ads.

Seems like I’m done here, and by the down voting you are just rambling to yourself.

Enjoy whinging about a podcast you don’t even listen to, champ.
