  • Makes you feel good about your life

    I look forward to this pod every week because it just makes me feel good. It’s somehow self reflective/deep, but also fun and light-hearted simultaneously. Waelti is brutally honest and vulnerable, which takes balls and inspires me to be the same. Life is tough. Vulnerability is strength. Poop stories are funny.

    I’ve been a listening from the beginning and the banter between Chris and Steven never gets old. The mix of guests that range from comedians to friends to Steve’s dad keeps it interesting. Chris sounds happier to be alive as of late, I think I’m slowly becoming a Waeltaholic!

  • I’m not sure whether to root for Waelti’s self-sabotaging behavior or his ambition to improve himself.

    One thing is for sure though, this guy has some really hilarious friends with great stories about him that bring his personality flaws to light.

    Waelti is at his funniest when he’s embarrassed and when Steve calls him out for leaving out details he’s trying to hide.

    It’s even funny to people who don’t know Waelti personally. Highly recommend!

    If you don’t smash Rachel by this weekend, I’m becoming a Steve-head again.

  • Unfiltered Gold

    I’ve learned from this Pod that we all want an inside look at what our peers / other humans are thinking and doing behind the curtains. This crew pulls you right into the bathtub with them and you’ll likely want to stay and listen; just don’t forget the soap.

  • Great listen

    I’ve never listened to a pod before this , so I have no comparison. This is great to loose yourself for an hour or so listening to stories of a guy who seems down on his life and happens to be a decent comic ! The way he banters with his ‘co-host’ / ‘producer’ / ‘sidekick’ leaves me chuckling and his guests, who are his friends, are pretty funny too. I recommend this listen as a way to make you feel better about yourself

  • Growing on me like a cancerous tumor, but in a good way.

    Full disclosure, I know Steve.

    For the first 10-15 episodes of this show, I found myself solely interested in the guests (this show’s guests are great). I couldn’t relate to Waelti, and it was frustrating for me to hear him discuss all that was wrong with him and his life, only to never take anyone’s advice or make any effort to improve. Now, I must say that it takes a lot of guts to be bluntly honest with the world in the way that Waelti is on the podcast, and I admire that he’s willing to sha... more

  • Real candid, enjoyable podcast

    Have known Steven for as long as I can remember and he’s in his element on the pod. The lack of script and loosely structured topics lead to some great, honest conversations, which often leads to some pretty relatable revelations.

    Always look forward to listening on Monday’s and have even found myself listening to episodes again (like I’m doing now while working). Check it out!

  • A shining ray of gloom

    Chris Waelti is to podcasting what Eeyore was to Winnie the Pooh. He’s the contrasting cloud of doom that makes all your troubles seem trivial in comparison. Need a pick me up? Subscribe to this podcast and find yourself thinking, “Y’know, my life’s not so bad after all. Thanks, Waelti!”

  • Funny and casual.

    Love this pod. Dudes are really funny without trying to bombard you with jokes. They just talk about real stuff and then you’re cracking up... I think I’m team Steve.
