  • Hearts hearts hearts

    Making the Merge has changed my life, and by that I mean I now have the words “million hearts” permanently tattooed on my body.

    If liking this show is wrong, I don’t want to be right. Their songs live in my head rent free, and I need the MTM mixtape to drop ASAP. Their bits quickly become part of my vernacular, and often I find myself in a Mario impression or chomping at the bit to talk about that Jawan sauce.

  • Best Survivor Recap Show

    These guys really go off the rails sometimes, but I look forward to their ridiculous analysis every week - by far the best survivor pod out there.
