  • Was a great show

    I like the show but removing it because they won’t keep putting shows on my feed I don’t want. My podcast play in the background and hate it when I’m hearing shows I don’t want.

  • Drowning in laughter.

    I’m a long time listener of Box of Oddities and have been listening to The Shallow End since day one. JG and Linsey are epic story tellers and kings of comedy. Every episode will make you laugh, cringe, and/or feel better about yourself because of the stupidity they talk about.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Shallow End

What is The Shallow End about and what kind of topics does it cover?

Episodes mix outrageous real-life moments with candid commentary, reader submissions, and sponsor reads, anchored by strong chemistry between the hosts. The format tends toward fast-paced storytelling, witty riffs, and a playful, unserious take on extraordinary everyday misadventures. It likely appeals to listeners who want lighthearted chaos, clever storytelling, and a sense of camaraderie among hosts who feel like old friends.
