  • Much love

    Andy is so funny; enjoy every new episode. Wanted to comment on Eddie Pepitone: in the 2010’s, a friend in Seattle had an extra ticket to an EP show. Not many people there; didn’t have much expectations for the evening. I’d never heard of him but I laughed soooo hard that night I almost had to be hospitalized. Helpless, soundless laughter. Go see his standup by any means possible

Now I keep up with him via the podcast and radio show, which are both outstanding. He is a great host, very comfortable with guests and asking questions, and a great voice for audio media. I have only followed his Dancing with the Stars run via the podcast, but hearing him talk about how much it meant to him on his 11/18/25 episode was a powerful and emotional experience. We’re... more

  • One of my favorites

    Andy Richter has become one of my favorite podcast hosts. Good guests, good questions, and the call in show is great. I feel like he brings out the best in people. And, of course, funny and surprising. A full course meal with dessert.
