So fun

I love these guys. I love this podcast. I always look forward to the episode breakdowns, behind the scenes stories, and banter between the hosts. They’re currently on hiatus because of the writers strike, which makes me a little sad, but also adds to my respect for them. I love the solidarity for their friends in the industry. Miss you guys. Can’t wait till you’re back ❤️

These negative reviews

These negative reviews here are hilarious to me! They’re not even constructive! These guys have no obligation to do this podcast….I have enjoyed this podcast and appreciate you guys for taking the time to make it! I like that there have been more BTS facts lately.

Rob and Greg

I think this podcast would be more enjoyable with Rob and Greg as hosts. It’s hard to listen through with the any of the other hosts.
