  • KEEP SINGING!!!

    Who are these monsters who don’t want to hear the dulcet tones of Shandy??

I’ve loved getting to know Andy, too, and it doesn’t h... more

  • Love this podcast!!

    So I stumbled upon this podcast when I was searching for Bachelor content on youtube. And then I started listening to their other episodes. I find their dating advice really helpful and the q&a conversations have helped me set boundaries in relationships. I'm also really inspired by their positivity and witty banter with each other. And of course, they have some talented and interesting guests. So happy I came across this podcast
