One thing about these two is they're gonna go off topic. Do they get into the details of season 5, episode 20 "Return To Sender?" Yes! Do they take some time to rearrange Lamorne's podcasting desk? Also yes! (But don't worry, because we trimmed out p... more

I love New Girl and used to love the pod, but unfortunately, with all the GLP-1 ads and Lamorne promoting fasting from food and water for days and Hannah normalizing that behavior as just “what all moms do,” I just can’t listen anymore. I find it very triggering to my personal struggles with disordered eating. It makes me think “oh look everyone else, including these people I look up to, doesn’t eat either. I should try doing that again” despite the very real, very negative consequences it has h... more
I’m having a really hard time listening to this pod lately. I’ve been sticking with it because I love New Girl and I love the people in the cast, but episodes lately have been seriously lacking focus and the hosts go off topic constantly. Especially in the latest episode, they get back on topic for 2 minutes and trail off for another 5. I had to keep skipping around to when they actually talk about the episode. I don’t want to abandon this show because I love the bts snippets we do get, but the ... more
Loved this show and love hearing BTS info and stories from cast and beyond. Love that it’s still going! Never stop!!
I love New Girl so much and it’s such a comfort listening to this podcast. I have misophonia though a NEED y’all to edit out Lamorne’s mouth noises. I’ve shut it off several times over the lip smacking and drinking sounds. Please fix this so I can listen!!
Obviously I came for New Girl, but I stayed for Hannah and Lamorne. Genuinely if they just chatted all episode and never spoke about new girl, I would still be happy.
