Customer Reviews
One of the BEST
I have LOVED Rick since I first saw his stand up and movie/TV appearances. He dives into the lives of everyone he speaks to and brings out nothing but the best in them. It is such a joy and so refreshing to hear his wisdom and opinions. Keep up the GREAT work!
Simply Sublime
Overton is an incredible host and his voice is like a perfectly brewed cup of tea for the ears.
Come for the funny, stay for the insights.
I'm editing my review because it didn't say enough good stuff about it. The episode with Henry Rollins is so rich with mental stimulation. Learned about Kyle Cease from listening & am starting to really love life more fully. You've gotta listen to the episode with Dom Irrera & Robin Williams, I've re-listened to that one several times. My only negative comment is that he doesn't put out enough of them. But it's the old "Quality vs. Quantity" I guess.
If you like intelligent people talking about humor, the process of making great comedy along with insights on life & how to live it fully, you'll love this. I'm kinda biased because I've seen Rick be really funny & he's always been great at sharing ideas & comments on life. The rapport he has with his guests makes for an opportunity to laugh, think & maybe look at things in a different light. So come for the funny, stay for the intellectual stimulation.
