Customer Reviews
Big change
Jerey went from who smarted to this
Hilarious bad taste
They remind me of me and my friends talking when we hope nobody hears us say some stiff and thinking we are hilarious. It makes me LOL and they are detailed and yes compassionate too for the victims
Love to “The Woman”, etc.
I am a random almost 40 yr old woman who LOVES your podcast! Whoever says “less Kim” is a (as the kids say) “fart face”. Also, Kim’s voice is raspy and smooth as a human being who has been slowly inhaling yarn all of their life. Also, Jerry is “tolerable”. Kidding!
