  • All the Alliterations are Awful!

    I hate Karen!!!

    The alliterations were fun for a while. Now it makes me cringe every time the show starts and I have to convince myself not to turn it off. We’re all impressed that you can pull words from the same section of a dictionary to make a ridiculous sentences. It takes more than having nouns and verbs in their proper places to make a sentence that people want to hear.

  • I miss Dana!!

    I’ve listened to Good Job Brain since (almost??) the beginning. I miss Dana but seriously - Karen and Colin are amazing. And Karen works her freaking beaver tail off for this podcast. And she’s an absolute delight.

    But Chris?? Ugh. He’s the most obnoxious, know it all, smug, gatekeeping dick that you could ask for. Anything he doesn’t know the answer to gets shrugged off as unimportant.
