  • Good topics but

    I’m so sorry but these hosts have absolutely no chemistry. It feels downright awkward at times. Neither of them knows how to lead and we’re left with silences even with the editing.

  • It’s become a whole different thing

    I used to love this podcast when they talked about different shows, pop culture touchstones, and everything in between. I haven’t touched it since it’s become a summer house recap podcast. I wish the went back to the old format because I’ve been re-listening to old episodes over and over

    Just wondering if this podcast is over. Their posting schedule was spotty to begin with, but it seems like it is completely over now. Would love an announcement if they are only doing Patreon from now on.

  • Emily and Sammy <3

    Emily and Sam are so delightful. I love their embrace of woowoo hippie nonsense combined with their good humor about it. They manage to be charmingly self deprecating without taking it too far. I didn’t watch The Valley but have loved their recaps and I live for all their Bravo content.

Q: What was the first kind of sign for you regarding your dad's dementia?
It was everything about the whole thing has been quite unconventional. It was a family friend who pointed out that my dad had introduced another friend to him, and all of them had known each other for over 30 years.
