Customer Reviews
So Fun
Philosophy and Comedy, love it. Sam’s wheelhouse ain’t humour but a good balance with Ricky.
Ricky Gervais makes me belly laugh!!
I love to hear Ricky Gervais laugh at something really funny because I am then sharing the moment and he’s got me laughing out load and honestly, we need to laugh and have fun and be a kid ourselves once again!! It releases our stress!
Life has sucked so far this year, here in Canada it’s the same.... a small light of hope in the corner yet it’s still not over. I would rather still wear a mask!
Time will tell how this virus will mutate, I pray it’s over soon. Ricky Gervais calms my nerves, helps me relax and his guests are interesting and funny!
Love ya man!!
Accessing Episodes
I purchased the full series - It seems I have to go to the AM website to be able to play episodes and can’t access via podcasts. The link I received by email, following my purchase, only plays one episode from Season 3z
