Customer Reviews
Raja is the best part of the show
Logan and Howard are solid and they have great insights and chemistry with Raja. But man I think Raja is hands down the best part of the show. Every time he is not in an episode I am let down. Raja just has such good stories and perspectives and is super funny too. Group chat is good too but Real Ones when Raja is on is my favorite by far.
One of my favorites
I love Group Chat and have liked the addition of Howard Beck to Real Ones.
Great pod!
Real ones is dope! Love the vibe fellas!
