  • Could listen all day

    I specifically adore Jenny (and always have) but I will listen to these three muse on just about anything. I look forward to being a fly on the wall for their group chat. If anything, make it longer! Would love more banter from the three before the guest comes in. Also worth noting that episode quality is very guest dependent. Some add little to the convo or disrupt the flow, but the good ones really make for a good time.
