The questions are good but I do love the chit chat the best!
I’ve been a huge fan of Iliza for YEARS. paid for meet and greets, signed books and posters, listened RELIGIOUSLY to every comedy special and podcast but I’ve hit my breaking point. She seems to be going down a right wing pipeline with her comments about Charlie Kirk and Israel. She’s entitled to her opinions but I would rather not be called an idiot or paid actor for being critical of Israel’s far right leadership. I hope the money from Israel is worth it and you’re not just doing this for love... more
I have been a longtime fan of Iliza as a comic since War Paint and had no idea until last year that she had a podcast. I have been binging it since. I absolutely love this format. Some questions are funny, some are serious, but Iliza knocks them all outta the park. I also love the dynamic btw Iliza and Emily! Hot Scotty crushes it with the comedic relief in audio editing too. I absolutely love driving to work and cracking up over AIA!!

Have been enjoying the show for some years now because of the Iliza/Emily combo. (Yes I do enjoy hearing about the cats.)
Some current trends: I like podcasts because they DON’T contain visual content. Don’t care if my hosts have perfect hair—just want to hear them.
Iliza is moving this to a more video program—may work out well, but not my taste.
More importantly, very disturbed by Iliza confounding any criticism of the policies of the state of Israel ( and its authoritarian lea... more
