  • Cannot stand Sophia

    Sophia brings my rating down by at least 2 stars. Her disdain for the region is so consistantly evident. Please, if you hate everything so much because it’s different than where you’re from, go back to Philly or wherever. Everything Sophia says is a downer and makes this show miserable. She adds nothing of substance, just a rain cloud on the show.

  • Advertising for landlords?

    Loved this podcast until they started advertising for platforms geared toward landlords and property management companies. Do better. Tenants are in crisis. Let’s not make landlords’ jobs easier.

  • Fantastic resource for new Yinzers

    My husband and I just moved to the city and we’ve made this podcast a daily listen. The hosts and guests are realistic and personable, the “what to do this week/weekend” tips are great, and we love when they cover basic-but-necessary topics like how to drive in Pittsburgh or how to eat out on a budget.
