  • Hammo’s voice is relaxing

    My exposure to Hammo over the years has definitely been via the Everyone Relax universe but the recent Hammofop episodes on that network really encouraged me to come and check out this pod and I’m glad I have! Such a positive, funny and relaxing listen. Hammo is a good guy
