4.6 out of 5 stars from 198 ratings
  • Always cheers me up

    These two are just funny, and there’s something very wholesome about this pod. They do get into quite incisive analysis sometimes (which I always want more of) but I mostly listen when I need a smile.

  • Contract obligations

    I’ve noticed a trend for episodes that last around 15 mins even with the ads. Fulfilling your contract is fine but shows a half hearted approach.

  • “Like”

    I beg for the life of me, please stop using the word “like” every 3-4 words. This podcast is great. With some great insights. But I swear, every other word is “like”. Which is really off putting. I can’t focus on the content when that’s all I hear. It would be a 4-5 star podcast if it wasn’t for that.

    Why ? It does not add anything. It’s jarring .
