  • Real life

    ‘Enlightened Neanderthals’ is the kind of show that sneaks up on you – starts funny, ends up making you think. The hosts bounce between absurd cave – man jokes and real talk about modern life like it’s nothing, and somehow it works. Smart without being smug, hilarious, without being mean. I’ve laughed out loud. If you like podcast that actually feel human, this one’s good.

  • Excellent show!

    Love the show! Silly and informative, but serious when required. It has become my favorite part of Fridays. Thanks for putting in the time guys. Tobin, I have a special term for you since you wanted to be a cowboy and now call yourself a pirate. I call myself a North American Horse Pirate - very rough Scandinavian translation for American Cowboy. You can share the title if you wish.

  • Good stuff

    I love listening to unusually well articulated knuckle draggers.

    Wide range of topics. I always learn something new or add a new facet to my paradigm. Highly recommend.
