  • Five stars!

    Listening to Rob and Kate is like sitting in front of the two cool kids a grade ahead of you on the bus. They're talking about TV shows, cracking jokes, dropping lore, and disappearing down tangents. You keep hoping they'll lean forward and ask if you've seen the latest episode so you can join in, but honestly, you're having a great time just listening to them talk.
