Customer Reviews
Simple truth simply amazing
This podcast hits home, it’s authentic, real and I simply think 2-week intervals is nowhere near enough. Keep it fresh guys you are both amazing hosts.
Yes yes yes
Grab a coffee, and commute with these folks. Affirming, and so lovely.
Beat podcast
I listen to your podcast since a couple month now,
I’m not gonna lie, this is number one in my list. Why? Not just because I’m an introvert myself and that I can relate to everything you say about introverts, but for the energy, the dynamic you two have.
You host a show on a very specific topic, with a pinch of humour, just enough to be delightful.
So yeah, thank you both and (please) keep going your great work!
All the best
