  • Mouth sounds

    Something needs to be done about the mouth sounds. I really want to love this podcast since I’m a huge new girl fan but listening to Lamorne’s constant mouth sounds drives me absolutely crazy and I can’t focus on anything else or I stop listening all together. If they can be edited out this podcast would be amazing!

  • It’s good but could be great

    I really enjoy the banter and the conversation for the most part. The stories are fun but I have heard some stories several times throughout different episodes so it gets a little redundant. Also my biggest gripe is Hannah scream “laughing”. It sounds so forced and disingenuous. Please make it more genuine interactions that also don’t make my ears bleed.
