Perfect for MSW fans!

I love this podcast! It feels like talking to my family (and beloved family friends) about one of my favorite comfort shows of all time :)!!!

Great pod for fans of JB Fletcher

Found y’all when you did the crossover with CCC, but from there, I started making my way through all your episodes! Love listening to you ladies talk about the episodes and enjoy your banter and laughter. My only question is how do I become a “beloved family friend?”

Great podcast

I needed to update my review to say I’ve now started listening to your episodes at the same rate that I rewatch episodes of MSW…. Which is to say over and over — and I’m never bored. You guys are my guilty pleasure.

Big MSW fan here— this podcast is a wonderful and needed escape from the news/politics at the end of the day. Thanks!
