A truly hilarious gem! The writing is fantastic, the voice actors are phenomenal. This isn’t for kids, or people who take life too seriously. Check this one out, you won’t be disappointed!

The writers of this show are so talented I couldn’t stop laughing out loud while listening to it all the way through. I can’t wait to see what they will make in the future!
