Customer Reviews
Brilliant!
Brilliant podcast! Good loughs, some goofy stories and you even can learn something new.
But how the f... I end up buying the Gandalf t-shirt is beyond me...
Entertaining
Pretty nice seeing two guys at the peak of their careers be so dumb. Gives me hope
Best review ever
I like that although you guys ramble a little bit about different/personal stuff on each episode, these experiences you share with us have shown me that it’s okay to be human and make mistakes, have bad days and funny moods, etc. I used to think I needed to be strong and optimistic all the time to be successful but listening to you guys and your struggles has been like breathing fresh air and knowing that everything will be okay... as long as I work for what I want 😋
Also, you talk about so many interesting things and you make them so understandable that anyone even without a design background (hint: me) can understand and connect with your ideas!
Thanks for a great (show?!) podcast.
