Amazing!!!

I loved this podcast, learning stuff about things that I have read or watched growing up is always a good time.

Born Stars

Kristen and Cera are very funny, clever, insightful, attractive, and beautiful. Every time I order from them, my food is fresh and warm. Hearing their hypnotically caucasian voices for this long, uninterrupted and in such high quality, evoked a primal sense of bloodlust in me that I haven’t experienced since before. Thank you.
