They are trying so much harder and doing so much more than other podcasts. In the (approximate) words of Adam Brody’s character in “Thank You For Smoking”: It kind of makes you want to stop listening to other podcasts, but I guess you kind of have to.

I am only just finding this!!! What they do is incredible. I love their chemistry, wit, intelligence, and unhinged ability to bring joy in this specific unique way. It takes a lot of knowledge and hard work to do what they do effortlessly.
