Description
Current events, as seen by 'blue-collar America', 4Thirty in the Morning is a perspective-based, news commentary and oddities podcast designed to provide an alternative take on the happenings around the world. Co-hosts Ben and Pat are both authentic, working-class guys, and their rough-around-the-edges style, personal anecdotes, and ever present sense of humor, blend together to offer a unique discussion on fringe topics, while also bringing relatability to complex subject matter.
