  • Funny, funny

    Great show, smart funny hosts.

    If you’re remotely as obsessed with Heated Rivalry as many of us, you’ll be glad you listened.

    I’m grateful for the Continental perspective. Olga is Russian and Catherine is Irish and I look forward to finding their stand up work.

  • HR and Comedy

    Heated Rivalry and comedy are two of my favorite things! I’ve listened to multiple HR podcasts and reaction channels on YouTube and this one may be my favorite. Once I’m done binging this, I’ll happily check out the comedy of the hosts.

  • So funny!

    Dom’s impersonation of the Ilya in the novel is making me cackle!! Great banter between the hosts, so funny. I love that it offers a true critique of the show - pointing out what is unrealistic, heteronormative. And yes, watch Looking!! It is brilliant. Not only Jonathan Groff but Murray Bartlett too. I went back to watch it after watching HR and it is so heartwarming, clever, real, grown up.
