  • What happened?

    Loved this podcast so much but for the last year it has been incredibly boring and I finally had to unsubscribe after episode 269, what was that about? Georgia talked about spontaneous human combustion (yawn) and Karen recaps something she saw on tv, I’ve tried really hard to ride through the one story a week horrendously dragged and boring quilts out for this!!! I’m done and if I’m honest I’m truly sad to say goodbye but I’ll never get this time back so why am I putting myself through it? I can... more

  • Easy fav

    This was one of the first podcasts I ever listened to and I love it from almost every aspect. They have a good balance of friendly banter, while still telling the story. I think they could lose some of the talking in the beginning, HOWEVER, I bet there are other fans who eat it up. They have really stepped up their game when it comes to presentation & research. I love how they do a range of stories. Added bonus: I find both of their voices to be aesthetically pleasing (whatever that means)…I hon... more

  • Day one listener

    I love K+G but it’s starting to feel like I’m an abusive relationship. Every week they disparage and demonize anyone with conservative beliefs but go on to preach inclusivity. I really hoped the tone would change after recent events. I pray they out of their bubble and try to find common ground with people instead of using hateful language that halts the conversation. God bless!
