  • A very cheesy podcast.

    I like this show a lot and have listened for years, I do not like the rebrand that much because I personally enjoy musicals more, and think that it fits the format better, but the show still has the great chemistry from this trio, and it’s especially humorous when guests get involved. My only big problem is the swearing, I’m very much a prude when it comes to cuss words. But others won’t be bothered by it as much as me. Best part of the show is when they talk about that guy with the glasses. 4/5... more
