Customer Reviews
One of the best writers going
..and explainers, and understanderers, and humorists. I’m looking forward to diving into this podcast.
Love her
I first discovered Sara during the 2008 election. Her Sara Palin vlogs got me through the stress of sweating out that election. Funniest stuff I’ve ever seen! My friends and I were so nervous that election day, instead of watching the returns, I suggested we watch Sara Benincasa vlogs.
How great is it to find out that not only is she one of the funniest people out there, she is also warm and compassionate and seems very sweet.
Yes! 69th rating. Nice
Why aren’t all the ratings 5 stars? I love her work. Check out her writing too. Also, I wish I could give her 6 stars for her hair. Go Sara go
