United States3 months ago - Awesome caliber and variety of guests
I’m really impressed with the variety of guests that include actors, producers, writers, etc. You can tell the hosts are friends and have chemistry / history.
Apple Podcasts5ldnqUnited States4 months ago - Sudsy start
Interview was good but could have used better audio on Eric. Opening banter had way too much of Greg’s juvenile teasing of Rebecca. I will listen to episode 2 in hopes of improvement. Update: nope. All episodes show why they are actors…they don’t know how to freely banter without scripts. She laughs constantly. So sad. Could’ve been a contender.
