Brilliant

I like comedy podcasts but don’t laugh out loud to much of it except for this show, the humor just catches me off guard lol. Lost it today at Orin’s bit in the Bigfoot game in episode 54. Such a chaotic show that’s always entertaining and wholesome.

My absolute favorite podcast

Makes me smile

Listening is joyful and fun. I like all of the games people create and love to hear all of the participants play. Jo and Manolo’s conversations are lovely too.
