    Please just goof forever because it makes me laugh so much and then get the hiccups from laughing too much. Update: I don’t remember leaving this review but three years later and I’m still a dummo and I still love this. Update: it’s fine that they keep doing this

  • Irrelevant fun for the most of the family

    Do you enjoy constant comedy coaxing your ears? What about set of friends still working to figure out what exactly the show is? If you answered yes to either question, then I’d recommend HTN for you. Matt, Jeff, and Louisa are a terrific trio. From pop culture references to actual sound advice for a variety of topics. Hack The Net is one of the best podcast where the casters don’t want to keep doing the podcast.
