  • Annoying

    They sound like valley girls, the one girl has this squeaky voice, and they talk over each other. Very superficial. I will listen when there is nothing else on. No, they are not funny.

  • It’s ok

    Just ok, they’re fun to listen to have interesting takes, But have their facts wrong. Listening to the October 1st podcast about Katie’s dinner party and they keep saying it’s at Jen’s house don’t even mention Katie being there. So it’s kinda hard to listen to a long podcast when basic facts aren’t even factual
