Customer Reviews
Fantastic
One of my favorites…amazing info and humor…I just struggle getting through all of Joanna’s ‘Umm's’ . Mallory is an absolute rockstar!
Joanna Robinson is the best
Love listening to Joanna dissecting TV with Mal, with Rob, Sean, Charles, etc. but anytime Bill Simmons pops up on a pod it becomes almost unlistenable.
Stop doing one episode of a show and not following through!
I love this show and everyone involved, but they really need to stop discussing one episode of a show and never continuing forward. Don’t tease us!
