Spicy Gang fan ,

Highly recommend!

Tuned in to their Matrix review and I plan to tune in again. I really enjoyed the hosts' different perspectives and voices, and would even listen just to hear them laugh. Good energy and vibes. Highly recommend!

Mike269266 ,

Fun hosts!

Infectious laughter from the hosts. Can’t resist smiling.

Cortney V ,

Definitely Recommended!!

I recently tuned in with the episode about P-Valley and I love the chemistry of the hosts but more so their perceptions. Many tv series aren’t so transparent with what really goes on for instance at the strip club and they shared great dialogue on their POV ! Dope !
