Please please please do a reunion show. I am so gla... more

  • Thanks for show

    The middle is the best show ever, and I look forward to Wednesdays when I can listen to new content.

    BROCK AND EDEN ARE THE G.O.A.T.!

    -Ted

    Edit: omg I am so amazed that this saw the podcasts light of day.

    Also, on Apple Podcasts under hosts and guests, it says Eden Sher(host) Brock Ciarlelli (host) and Rose Abdoo (guest). Doesn’t say anyone else, just Ms. Abdoo. I just find it strange.
