Jake Johnson (New Girl, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse) and Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop) don't feel qualified to give strangers good advice. Most of their friendship over the last 15 years has been based around dumb bits, but they do (for better or worse) want to try to help people out. Like your friendly local bartender or your tipsy uncle at a family gathering, Jake and Gareth are on the caller's side and trying to help. Each episode, the guys make several pitches to callers (whose questions range from trivial to serious) with their best attempts of advice. They can't promise their suggestions will be perfect, but it will be the best they've got. Jake and Gareth also occasionally bring on a friend, peer or even an expert to help along the way.

Simple the tops my friend
Literally my favorite podcast. Highlight of my day anytime I listen. The hosts Jake and Gareth are the FUNNIEST people to listen to. And the callers?…well you’ll just have to hear the sheer absurdity and amazing stories the boys will “walk you through.”
Thank you for a great podcast, gents.
You HAVE to follow Up
I have to admit… the first couple episodes I ended up listening to some of the more risqué episodes. It wasn’t my style, but I love Jake Johnson and thought I would keep giving it a shot. The episode “You HAVE to follow up” is my absolute favorite so far!
You guys actually provided helpful advice and were hilarious doing it and adding Val’s music on the end was just so cool. I went and bought her song. It was such a vibe. I put 4 stars but as I keep listening, I think it could get up to 5 stars. Thanks Jake and Gareth for putting in the effort on this podcast. Love you guys.
Amazing!
This Podcast is amazing! It’s so funny, creative, and joyous. It’s impossible to be in a bad mood listening to this. Cannot get enough!
