Says Who?

This podcast truly was a coping strategy for me starting in the pandemic and has been ever since! Dan and Maureen have terrific chemistry, brilliantly offbeat humor, and keep it real about life and the crazy times we’re living in. The best way I can describe it’s like sitting in a conversation with two friends over coffee and being reassured that no, you’re not crazy and not the only one who thinks [insert political news/scandal/global pandemic/national incident] was corrupt, nutty, insane, or simply bizarre…. And given their literary luminosity as well, there’s healthy mix-in of book talk, travel adventures, and stories of family life. The result is a unique podcast that’s a great way to spend an hour.

I've been listening on and off for a year or so but have been a fan of Maureen's for a decade or so. Dan is also great and the two have a really enjoyable rapport. If you want a current events show with some biting wit... Tune in!

The show would be much better without the weird character voices. I always end up fast forwarding those parts because I can’t stand them. The rest of the show is great and very enjoyable.

Maureen was such a fan of the Worst Idea Of All Time podcast that she stumbled backward into the same concept, but here, each season lasts four years. It’s more of an ill-advised blood pact than it is either a podcast or a coping strategy. We live in the basement of a burned down Arby’s, and these are our preachers. We like the preachers, and they choose to keep us warm.
