    Ivy Insights

    The Dave Rickards Podcast is a must-listen for long-time fans of the DSC show. As someone who has been listening to Dave and Chainsaw for decades, I was devastated when they announced their retirement. However, I am grateful that I can still hear Dave's voice through his own podcast. The interviews on this podcast are fantastic, but honestly, I would listen to Dave read out of an old phone book because he has such a captivating presence.

    One of the strongest aspects of The Dave Rickards Podcast is Dave's interviewing skills. He has a unique ability to bring out the personalities of his guests and make them feel comfortable. I particularly appreciate his interviews with local San Diego residents and those connected to the DSC show in some way. It's like catching up with old friends and reminiscing about the good times.

    On the downside, it would be great if there were more behind-the-scenes stories shared on the podcast. As a fan, it's always interesting to hear about what goes on behind closed doors and learn more about the dynamics between the show members. Additionally, it would be incredible if Emily could join Dave as a guest on the podcast. She was such an integral part of the DSC show, and it would be amazing to hear her perspective and catch up with her.

    In conclusion, The Dave Rickards Podcast is a delightful continuation of the familiar voices that we have loved for years. It brings back fond memories of listening to Dave and Chainsaw during auto shop class back in high school or falling for their April Fools jokes. While there may be room for improvement in terms of sharing more behind-the-scenes stories and having certain guests on the show, overall, this podcast is highly entertaining and worth adding to your playlist if you're a fan of The DSC. Thank you, Dave, for keeping us entertained for all these years!
