  • I *really* want to like this podcast. Truly. The longer it goes on, though, the more judgemental they become on things that are outside of their experiences and comfort zones. Instead of diving into why people do the things they do in relationships, they'll dunk on them and call them "pathetic," while giving different people and situations a pass based on fragments of information.

    This podcast *shines* when they've a third person of for interviews, though. The conversational rapport is primo.
