I enjoy this podcast, it’s light and a fun listen when on commutes. The only thought I’d add is that I prefer when it is topic based rather than random conversation. I have not enjoyed the latest ones as much as I did the earlier episodes when it was based on a topic.

Boring and shallow

There are so many amazing podcasts to listen to and this is not one of them. The topics are shallow, boring and noticeably have little prep and research by Shay and Ericka. One star for them giving it a shot, but don’t recommend.

Used to be better

I used to really enjoy this podcast when “the besties” did a breakdown of specific topics. The random conversations are super boring to listen to.
