Customer Reviews
So great
This show is absolutely hilarious. An absolute blast, the hosts are delightful, the ad breaks are creative and funny, and the whole thing is just very very funny.
Required Listening
Diane and Florence bring me all the best, most relevant, and most accurate news. If you’re someone who is always on the go and is hyper-plugged in but not sure what news you’re looking for: this is required listening.
Gosh these ladies are funny!
I am so happy that I decided to check this show out! Diane and Florence are so dang funny. I think my favorite thing about this show is how they are able to deadpan some of the most absurd things so that I’m sitting there being like “yeah seems reasonab....WAIT WHAT?” And that is always a fun experience. Listen to this. Binge it. Make it a part of your life. FOREVER.
