My favourite show
Have been listening to the show for 6 years - couldn’t find any substitute close to the show. Thanks for bringing us incredible info. Hugs from Hong Kong.
The OG and best
Have been listening for years and simply love this show. Love how Chuck and Josh have grown over the years (and yet still have a childish sense of humour). May they never stop going off on tangents
One and only!
Love SYSK! The way they speak is spontaneous and unscripted but packed with useful knowledge and stats! No one else does it quite like Josh and Chuck! Favourite podcaster ever!
