We're getting out of the studio and into my favorite restaurants across Los Angeles and New York City with people like Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, Niecy Nash-Betts, and so many more. I know, a celebrity-interview podcast, who’s doing th... more

  • Too many ad breaks

    Interesting concept and many interesting guests, but far too many ads. I end up switching off. I get monetizing your podcast but feels like overkill.

  • Side Dish

    Don’t love the way the two episode a week and guest are edited. If it was truly a “side dish”, it would be a completely different conversation. It feels disjointed and like it’s two episodes of the same conversation. It would be better as long episodes or the first episode is stories ABC and the side dish is story D.
