Customer Reviews
Great minds think alike lololol jkjkjk
These two guys have brilliant minds and it’s great to see them think together
Move to Apple Podcasts
They need to get with the times and move to Apple Podcasts where people can/will actually listen to the full series.
Wowcrap
Two stoned teenagers skipping school sit under a bridge and have an inane conversation about why humans dream. It obviously sounds interesting to them, because they are high, but to me it was painful to listen to two genuinely smart and fascinating thinkers make fools of themselves. Guys, sober up and edit before dropping this crap.
