Matt Bribitzer-Stull ,

Well Worth the Time!

If you enjoy bridge analysis, off-color stories, and/or peeking inside the minds of top players (both in terms of bridge play and their perspectives on the human experience), this podcast is for you! Be sure to listen only in spaces where your bursting out laughing won’t cause a disruption.

Entertaining and educational

Jocelyn and Catherine are superb company, and I learn something from the guests and the hosts every episode.

Smart and sassy

Smart and sassy! As a beginning bridge player I love this!
