Customer Reviews
Very interesting.....
Who knew?? I found these podcasts to be very interesting and informative. It's refreshing to know that there are people out there who care enough to inform us of interesting facts that fuel our brains rather than the typical trash that floods us daily. Does anybody really care which celebrity went into rehab this week? This makes for much more interesting conversation around the "water cooler". Not to mention that it makes you sound smart :) Keep up the good work!
Husband is Obsessed!
He talks about your podcast multiple times a day .Bought him an autographed copy of your book, which he opened yesterday, and can’t wait to read it.
Keep being awesome and I’ll put up with him non stop talking,
Samantha & Jason Gaebelein
Love the show, love them❤️keep it up!

How dare they... HOW👏🏼DARE👏🏼THEY👏🏼
