Customer Reviews
Total awesomeness
Love hearing the perspectives and the marriage of my two favorite things, music and comedy. These two categories of life have gotten me through some rough times and I enjoy their friendly banter and their unique vantage points. Love it!
Why did you stop
I really enjoyed your show the guests were very good. You guys got better aa
Mixes two of my favorite subjects
Happy to stumble upon a podcast that combines two of my favorite things - music and stand up comedy. I wasn’t familiar with Raelynn’s music (cool upbeat country with sort of a 90’s alternative rock feel) until I saw her on The Honeydew with Ryan Sickler - one of my other favorite storytelling podcasts. She and J.B. are both knowledgeable and relatable, and have a nice laid back vibe. Would love to see Theo Von, Ali Macofsky, Jeremiah Watkins, Bobby Lee, or Ron Funches appear at some point.
