Listener Reviews

"In the land of ‘heavy’ podcasts that are divisive or featuring so-called experts self-promoting, yours is a breath of fresh air. A podcast exists to just talk about life, to have fun, with no agenda or script. In other words, “nothing”. Entertaining and enjoyable. And sometimes “something. “

"This is ridiculous, but sometimes funny." (A teenage kid to his mom, who was listening in the car)
