The last two episodes were so freaking good!

Keep em coming!

I feel like attention has shifted away from this podcast to other projects and it’s a massive shame. This podcast was amazing in the first two seasons. There are not many first person story podcasts and this was the best.

I hope they start having better quality stories and longer episodes. There aren’t any podcasts like this and I hope they don’t ruin a good thing.

It’s just Rainn Wilson being weird

The stories when it first came out were awesome and I loved this podcast. Now it just lacks anything. I mean a story about a woman selling her hair on EBay and a 16 year old being overly aggressive trying to buy it. What a joke. I laughed at the end of that one and not in a good way.
