Host

Ivan Glenn

Ivan, according to critics, has the comedy timing of Eyeore from Winnie the Pooh and the charm of fencepost creosote. His hobbies are vintage toy collecting, Astronomy, and camping. Yep, three things that help him in no way to be a better podcaster.
Ivan is married and has three children, two of which have defriended and blocked him on all social media, with the third that is sure to follow suit as soon as he is old enough read and create accounts.
Speaking of social media, Ivan is also somewhat of a social justice warrior. He championed the "All Ginger Bearded Men Matter" movement in 2018. This was a disaster however as he never found any evidence whatsoever of harm or discrimination of against ginger bearded men by any group.
