4.8 out of 5 stars from 28 ratings
  • Really funny and enjoyable

    I was introduced to the 3 hosts because of Cane and Rinse, where with the exception of Leon these are my favorite hosts from that podcast. Needless to say when I found out about this podcast about a week ago I’ve been listening to every single episode starting from the beginning. Though I personally miss their V.A.X. rating system I still think the episodes are great fun to listen to and laugh out loud funny multiple times. Keep up the great work Brian, Leah, and Rich!
