    497: The NOs of Breakups

    In this episode, we invite you to laugh at listener-submitted breakup stories. From cringe-worthy middle school uncouplings to the classic “it’s not you, it's me, to break up attempts being thwarted, together we celebrate dodged bullets and reg flags raised early enough to nope out of a bad relationship. Plus Knox and Jamie share their own awkward breakups. People always told us that after a breakup we’d look back on this and laugh one day. Well, today is that day.

My absolute favorite podcast!

You got me through the dark days of doom-scrolling. A friend recommended The Popcast when I told her I realized that my obsession with monitoring current events by checking five different news sources each morning was not good for my well-being. I actually love that I think I can infer your politics but that you keep that you purposely keep that out of your banter. Thank you! It is so fun to just be entertained. I also love the Christian-light aspect. I describe it to friends as not being ABOUT religion but that you are excellent examples of what I think believers should be, good-hearted people sharing your desire to continue growing in your compassion for others, seeking further understanding of the diversity of life experiences, and being so freaking entertaining. I often ask myself, “What would Jesus do?” and the answer is NEVER to stoke hate. You are my people! Must become a BFOTS soon as I need to have your humor in my life more than once a week. Thank you for providing such a robust free episode each week. You have gotten me hooked. :)

In Popcast we trust

I’ve been following this podcast for over 3 years now and I can tell you I have never listened to a bad episode! Jamie and Knox bring a fun, chaotic energy that I am HERE FOR! I finally signed up to be a BFOTS and I regret not signing up earlier! I laugh so hard at every episode and shouldn’t podcasts make us happy not having to think about the stresses of life?!
