Howdy yall, thank you for rooting for me in the apocalypse Eric, i feel like I need to defend myself 🤣I feel like I would do better lol. Also I was the one with the lolly pop I’m pretty sure. Annnnd Joey was DEFINITELY the snitch! And he did it on purpose! Anyway great pod yall!
Cozy up and take a listen to these two fantastic human beings talk about life, love, friendship, space ships, Oxford commas, dreams, and so much more! I genuinely look forward to each episode and find myself singing their theme song throughout my day.
I’m not really sure how we journeyed through horror films bringing deep personal reflection to ending on Jesus saying “the kingdom of heaven is now” but that definitely happened and it was the best, IMO. Of course being that these peeps are family makes me bias, I’m sure, but seriously… who could take that kind of content and make it so deep and delightful? They are pure brilliance and a ray of sunshine. Keep it coming guys. ♥️♥️
This podcast has literally gotten me through the long winter months of 2026, and I’m so grateful for it! And the fact that it’s out at the start of the week is just a serious hit of happiness to my case-of-the-Mondays. It’s wholesome, meaningful, hilarious, and worth the listen every single week. If you don’t feel like instant friends with Eric and Elaine, it’ll at least make you wanna find someone to be friends with…on purpose!
Pour a cup of coffee and hang out with your two best friends! This podcast is full of joy, love, and hope as Eric and Elaine geek and nerd out over their favorite topics and somehow always bring it back to love: the love we have for each other, our jobs, and the world around us. Here’s to a breath of fresh air!
