Having a respite from the sharp corners of the world is always welcome. Scotty and Kurt are good guys who make smiles for miles. Great guests, great stories, great times.

I’m glad this heartwarming podcast is in my life. Highly recommended
I was tired of seeing politics everywhere so I searched for a politics-free podcast and this one came highly recommended.

To the point there are atleast 3 eps I straight up skipped after 5 minutes because i... more
Not only is it 1 of the best podcasts out there, The NY Times conquers, btw… 😉 Everything they recommend on the pod, be it TV Shows, Movies & even Books, all are always 💯… At this point, I just hope they don’t start a cult… Coz I’ll be so IN! 😜 Thank youuu… 🙌
