I am a huge podcast fan but this is absolutely my favourite. It is- quite literally- dangerously funny (I can’t tell you how many times I’ve almost choked on a drink because of something funny that was said). They have such a unique premise and because of the wide range of topics they cover; there is something for everyone. I highly recommend to anyone needing a good laugh or is interested in four people’s views on a random topic of their choice. Just a warning though, going off topic is inevita... more
Thoroughly charming throughout! Funny, light but incisive takes! Would recommend!
So glad I found this podcast, quickly turning into one of my favourites. Brilliant mix of hosts, who often fail to take the topics or each other seriously, which only adds to the delightful madness that is LL. Michael’s dubious quizzes at the beginning of each episode & Hugh’s musical recaps are the cherry on top. Highly recommend!
Doesn't matter the topic, if you know what they are talking about or not: each episode is funny and I guarantee you will enjoy it. Highly recommended
Warm, friendly, fun and interesting. Would pay for Hugh to be the voice assistant on my phone
