  • Too much vacation talk

    I love these girls so much, I have been watching them for as long as I can remember. This podcast has so many great episodes, but there are *so* many vacation recap episodes. I love hearing your banter but at some point it just feels like you forgot you’re recording. It’s not only becoming unrelatable to the audience, but it feels like by supporting we’re just a vacation fund. They deserve to make great money, but the podcast is so much better when there are other actual topics.

  • Joy IV

    This podcast is like joy in an IV for me. The only thing I don’t like is that I have to save the episodes up so that I have them for a rainy day. I love it that much.

    I’ve been subscribed to both Jessie and Kathleen since the early days! I’ve always loved how funny and free they are with each other. I can’t recommend this podcast enough (but fair warning wear headphones lol)!
