Hosts & Guests
Most awkward spirit tunnel

Definitely Kathy Bates, especially when other of her co-stars really got into it. Also, give Alfonso a break he hosts DWTS and America’s Funniest Home Videos. Love this podcast and hosts - one request, more Tre’vel Anderson as a guest.
Always a fun time!

Been listening for years and still love listening to the episodes when I need a pick-me-up! Still can’t get onboard with Glen and usually skip his reviews but I enjoy all the other hosts. Exposes me to lots of new things I wouldn’t bother to consume otherwise.

Thank you Glen Weldon! You pointed the way to Sweden’s Eurovision2025 entry - and Spain’s DIVA. I’ve been tapping that button all week like a lab rat for a sweet sweet sugar high
Derry is so veryyyyy

Long time listener, first time reviewer. Had to write my 5-star review after hearing Candace Lim's choosing to live in the world of Derry Girls! This one of the funniest shows ever made and I love hearing the insight of someone else who "gets" it!
