Honestly love the show and have listened to all the episodes. Unfortunately, the past couple years the show has degraded tremendously. If I would rate it based on recent years it would be a 1 star and that wouldn’t be fair. I could sit here complain, nitpick, and type all the things that aren’t great. I’d rather just say the things I love about the show. You won’t find the first episodes on here anymore and it’s a shame they are gone but I also see why they needed to go. If you did listen, you would understand the cozy feeling of just hanging out with friends those episodes had. In a time when I needed to not feel alone, it’s what someone like me needed. 500 episodes later, the vibe is still the same. I love this show and the cast. Anything less than 5 stars would be a disservice. If your are looking for anything other just a kickback/hangout session there are other shows out there for news, politics, and Gossip. Don’t come here expecting them to entertain you or be news/drama monkeys for you. Go elsewhere for that, they are too old and too busy to do anything other than living their lives.
