    These people just aren’t that deep. They give basic advice that you can find in any self-help book and their comedy has gotten lazier too. Every episode is packed with gay jokes or making fun of the producer (Celia). The former podcast with Beau and Nick was way better because Lisa was more contained by structure which also helped break up the repetitive jokes.
