  • Interrupter

    Sure would be nice to hear what the guest has to say. He constantly asks questions and then starts talking about himself or telling bad jokes instead of letting the guest speak.

  • Yes, you have women fans, silly

    48 year old upper middle class Suburban mom from the Boston area and You have no idea how wide your demographic is. Here’s why women love you: you don’t have dirtbag energy and even with “bro humor” Your vibe is that you’re here to have a good time and women feel invited to the party to without feeling like we would be getting hit on. That’s a gift. Don’t change and keep going .
