  • I’ve developed a parasocial relationship with Charlie and Natalie

    I originally started this podcast because I wanted something to fall asleep to but after a couple episodes I became addicted. Then I started the entire show from the beginning in maybe February and now I’m basically like ten episodes from being caught up. You guys are so funny and I’m obsessed. I just got to Eva’s bathroom stall idea and I just want to say that’s an idea I came up with when I first started listening so it felt like a good time to write a review. Love this show, please never stop... more

  • Every Day Pod

    Don’t normally review podcasts but this one I put on every single day as a housekeeper, and I have to explain to my clients why I burst out laughing while cleaning the toilet. Truly so funny, and also not overstimulating.

  • My comfort show

    Love listening to Charlie and Natalie. So funny and relatable. My only qualm is that Charlie’s voice is seriously so beautiful and whenever he breaks out into song it makes me angry that Natalie is being so relaxed and nonchalant about it. Charlie has such a beautiful voice with so much control and a fabulous tone. Where is Charlie’s musical theater career??????????? I’d like an ep of just Charlie singing. Thanks.
