  • Beeping

    I LOVE your pod- in fact it’s one of my favorite! Lately there’s this loud high pitched beep throughout the last couple eps. I’m not sure if it’s a text notification, but it’s so jarring I have to stop listening. Just letting you know xo

    Love your Bravo (esp Summer house) takes all the time, Tom! I’m a big fan of FFP too (maybe how I found this pod?) & the recent ep with Chris on the Traitors premier was 12/10! Please bring Chris back for more TRAITORS (Alan voice)!
