  • Frantic

    For people who want to hear their favorite movies be picked apart and not liked. The opposite of Christmas cozy.

  • Sorry Jenna

    I love everything you do Danny but Jenna talks so fast that it’s uncomfortable to listen to this podcast. So sorry she seems like a really sweet person that is high energy and fun but I just can’t continue to listen when she is your cohost. So sorry but thought there might be other listeners who have the same opinion.
