- Hilarious podcast, great chemistry.
How can you lose with these two funny Jews whose radio ooze goes down smooth like chartreuse. What’s your excuse: learn about Jewish tattoos... or matza ball chew. Hear diffuse interviews that amuse, enthuse and bemuse. Don’t confuse this review as some yahoo’s refuse: move these gurus to the tops of your queues and infuse your ear news as these dudes spew true views.
