  • Love these guys

    What a great podcast! The hosts are funny and insightful, hugely knowledgeable about pop culture, and they organize the episodes really well so every discussion feels complete. I hate it when podcasters go off on tangents and never return to their original thought—there are tangents aplenty here, but they all come back around in a satisfying way. Highly recommend!

  • Laughing so hard I scare my dog

    I’ve been an EHG listener since mark one of the podcast, and I never thought I could laugh more than I do listening to those chuckleheads❤️. Throw Pam into the mix and I am regularly startling my dog with my laughter while doing chores, if not scaring my dog AND neighbors when out on walks. Keep up the good work and I can’t wait to… Listen To Sassy!

January 1991 Teen Life: Depression, Douching & The New Sassiest Girls In America
