Such clever games

I miss AMA! I listened a long time ago and am going through it again currently. Ophira, Jonathan, and Art have such clever quips and banter with each other, I could listen to them all day. I am crushed that this show was cancelled due to ‘it never found its audience’ (paraphrasing) - I feel like AMA listeners are left with a puzzle-shaped hole in their hearts since there really isn’t another show like this. The clever word games, the hilarious song parodies, the honest and friendly interviews with VIPs… It’s so happy, pleasant, interesting, silly, and fun.

Please bring it back

I’m listening to the recordings again because I miss this show! It was positive, funny, and always a joy to listen to on my commute. Too many get overly sarcastic and negative. Not this show! I drove with a 🙂 when accompanied by the AMA crew.

STAY....DON’T GO 🙏😱👍

Sure do miss you two! Still listening over & over. Ophira & Johnathan are smart & witty, clever & upbeat, convivial & engaging. You are just what is needed in these strange times!❣️🙏 You’ve made me laugh so many times! I look forward to every episode often listening to each one more than once. PLEASE COME BACK! Life is just dull without you! Hope you are both well and happy, miss you both!
