Customer Reviews
Glad to have found it
I’m a new UK listener and finding the pod really refreshing to listen to two guys talk conversationally about fashion and style and pop culture x
Pleaaeeee go back to Sunday scaries!!!
Sunday scaries was a 10. It genuinely was so magic for the Sunday anxiety.
This is a 5 and so much less relevant to international listeners.
Essential
I can’t imagine a sunday, without a notification to tell me there’s a new episode of Sunday Scaries. This has been my go to podcast for so long now, it’s dreamy. The jazz soundtrack, scented candle recommendations and guest episodes, it’s the most comforting listen. I’m on my second round of re listening to sunday scaries from the beginning. I can’t recommend this enough.
Paige, Liverpool.
