This will not be a one-sided process, as Andy won’t shy away from get... more

Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 5.1k ratings
  • Good-natured, laughs and interesting chats

    Love how this show is laid-back and yet still interesting. I think one of the reasons is that Andy seems to be very humble, and genuinely interested in learning about other people and building them up.

    An interesting question to ask people is, “What is something that you didn’t think you were gonna like but you ended up liking it a lot?”

  • Will put you to sleep at the wheel: I flipped my car and your podcast kept playing

    I can’t remember who Andy was interviewing but neither of them was into it and it was so boring that I fell asleep at the wheel while doing 60mph on a rural highway. When I woke up, my car was on roll 2 of 3 and I could still hear Andy hauntingly faking it through a real stick in the mud of an interview. I can see how this is all my fault, but I just think Andy should share in the blame a little bit.
