- I appreciate you guys so much.
I always watch on YouTube but fell asleep listening to you last night. Have been sick and going through a lot of work changes. So I made sure to leave a review. Your dynamic is infectious and I appreciate the energy you put into your podcast/youtube channel so much. Thank you 🤍

It’s been really good lately! Length and frequency of tangents are very under control, you have great Q&A questions, and I love the recaps. My only criticism would be to lose the debate about whether someone needs luck or not at the end of your Q&A questions. It gives me blue balls; I’m ready and waiting for the next question as soon as Sheldon says Good Luck!

I didn’t listen to Ultimatum. Was hoping for Married At First Sight but every other podcast was insightful and entertaining.

I remember Sharleen, a fellow Canadian, from The Bachelor years ago, but didn’t realize she had a started a podcast. It came up in my recommended in Apple Podcasts for reality TV recaps, and I decided to give it a listen, not noticing at the time it was Sharleen. I enjoy their recaps and their commentary, but my favourite part has become Andy’s random facts, little tidbits of information are interesting, and I can’t honestly say I learn things from their content! Please more foreign Love is Blin... more
