Customer Reviews
I laughed, I cried
I kept ignoring the No Dunks plugs for this show — thought it wasn’t my type of podcast. Flash forward a year and I’ve listened to every episode (ever). Matt, JD, Rachel, and guests are hilarious (and sometimes incisive) on any and every topic. Give it a try, you won’t regret it.
Stick around for the guest episodes
Matt and JD are awesome! Been with them for years since their Starters days. I skip their daily shows as their third host is awful, but their guest episodes are great. Would love to give 5 stars but am turned off secondary to above detail
This is good.
If, like me, you always thought that The Complainted Area should become its own pod, you will love ITG!
Matt and JD are known delights, Rachel is a revelation. Who knew Digby had treasures that don’t come from the sea!
