  • The best real fake name in the game.

    Tyler Darling here, and I want to say the name Walker Lukens alone has me sold on the show.

    It’s really an amazing concept for a show. It’s improv, it’s music, it’s an eclectic collective. Showmanship in show form. Just listen and enjoy!

    Thanks y’all!

  • Incredibly Open and Refreshing

    Such a unique concept with creative and warm hosts. By creating an open and safe space, the hosts are able to bring out such raw and affecting experiences. It’s obvious they listen and process with their own lenses and contribute to stories by discussing how they relate to other’s stories. I look forward to every new episode. Highly recommended.
