  • Awful & Awesome is perhaps the best pop culture podcast I've ever come across, the energy and banter of the hosts is infectious and gives me the boost I need to beat the midweek blues. Worth every second. And of course, I listen carefully to their recommendations on what to watch and not.

  • Fun one from NL

    Rajyashree and Abhinandan’s review of that week’s tv shows, movies, etc. Reviews are fun but more fun is their banter. One of the top 3 NL podcasts with Hafta and HOMP.
