Customer Reviews
Please do not ever not go on.
So good it hurts. I have experienced genuine pain on numerous occasions from laughing (and living and loving) so hard! I am unreasonably into this podcast, it’s quite possibly getting to the point of being weird and creepy. But I care not. For this pod, I do so love.
Funny AND interesting
Just discovered and so glad I did. Funny content discussed by 3 people who a clearly good mates ... unforced, natural ... I could go on ... but why does Jess look like she has neck brace on?
Soooo cool!
My partner got into your podcast because of the Little DumDum Club and we listened to Do Go On when we did long car trips. This year I started a job where I can listen to podcasts all day and I have been sucked in! I started from the beginning and I love the running jokes. I probably listen to 3 episodes a day at least haha it’s amazing, I can’t stop! You need to come to Perth and do a live show over here in WA please. A perfect combination of facts and comedy. Keeps me interested even with topics I wouldn’t necessarily choose. I always learn something! The best podcast that always has me in stitches.
