Peace Luv Save the whales

My fav podcast. The Patreon is even better. I wish I could have these two in my ears all the time.
Can’t get enough of CMBC

Nataloshhh

I have been listening to this podcast for years (it is the only podcast I can truly say I’m loyal to), and it just never gets old. Claire and Ashley are so so funny and so smart and I’ve seen such an amazing development in their commentary which is so cool to experience. Can’t wait to see these gals live, I feel like they are already my friends (literally the closest experience I’ve had to a parasocial relationship haha). You have me loling when I least expect it. Celebrities better never stop writing memoirs please because I need this podcast!!!!!!!
Used to be a huge fan

Earth_2_MarsLander

This podcast and Patreon used to be the highlight of my week but over the last 6 months or so I’ve found their ignorance more and more difficult to listen to.
Here for it

This podcast has everything I’ve been looking for: stories that distract me from the persistent horrors & two people I feel like I’d want to be friends with. Keep it going, I’m hooked.
