Customer Reviews
Perfect Blend
I love Ira’s and Louis’ dynamic and it’s perfect blend of intellect, silliness, and snark. The guests are always sensational and I appreciate the the overall diversity of guests and topics. For some crazy reason, and with nothing but love, Ira and Louis also remind me of Frasier and Niles Crane!?! Which one is who, I’ll let them debate…
5 stars for louis.…
and only louis....is it too late to replace ira? come on…please…
Horrible…
Don’t even try to listen
