    Wendy's Pt. 2

    Wendy's Pt. 2

    We did an episode on Wendy's last week and neglected to talk about Dave Thomas, the "Where's the Beef?" lady or the attractive woman they had play Wendy in commercials in the 2010s (aka "Sexy Wendy"). We regret the oversight, and offer you this episode where we talk about all that stuff, and Tom contemplates adopting a new lifestyle.

    Wendy's

    Wendy's

    Wendy’s is in the news for trying to use AI to price gouge their customers and we’re here to talk about it.. We also discuss their (mostly) pretty great menu and take a trip down Frescata Lane. If you’re expecting us to talk about Frosty’s or Dave Thomas though, you’re gonna have to wait until next week.

    Las Vegas Sphere

    Las Vegas Sphere

    There's a new ridiculous thing in Las Vegas, and it's a big ball that plays videos. This week we're talking about Sphere (not the Sphere, thank you very much), the immersive event venue that makes going to a U2 concert feel like you're on drugs. We also talk about local Long Island musician Billy Joel's new song.

The Complete Guide to Quality Entertainment

I started listening to this podcast almost a decade ago when I was only in middle school, my cousin loved it and I wanted to as well, even if a lot of the references went over my head as a barely-teenaged Canadian girl. Now here I am well into university and still listening regularly, to the new episodes, the old ones, and even the Patreon exclusives.
If you’re looking for a serious and informed source on a particular topic (as some reviewers here seem to have been) this probably won’t be the podcast for you, although I’ve certainly learned a lot over my years of listening. But if you’re just looking to relax and have some laughs with two guys who don’t take themselves too seriously, then you’re right where you need to be.

It’s ok

At first I thought this was an educational podcast but soon realized it’s comedy. They speak about the topic for maybe 5% of the show and then unrelated jibber jabber for the other 95%. It’s sort of funny but not my cup of tea!

Really not good

Painful discussion about nothing precedes discussion about the listed topic, and it doesn’t get much better after that. Sorry, but there’s not much to this.
