    I love Rehka soooo much she’s so wonderful. Waleed is also great and I think unfortunately an excellent heel. Sorry Waleed it’s very funny when everyone is against you!

  • Please stay dead forever

    I’ve never laughed harder or looked forward to a weekly podcast more. Please keep this show going for all of eternity. However, with love, can yall work on balancing your sound for the car listeners on earth? Something happens when it’s transmitted from the afterlife and I miss a lot of the whispers and then get blasted when the volume returns to normal.
