Customer Reviews
I love Katie and Jesse
I love the great repartee between Katie and Jesse. It almost doesn’t matter what they’re talking about, they make every subject interesting and fun.
Sanity Restored
This podcast is the best thing to come out of the pandemic. Jesse and Katie approach internet controversies with equal parts journalistic integrity and irreverence. They stay too online so I don’t have to! Also, the Primo community is a top notch internet space, you will love it if you’re not an a**hole.
Blocked & Reported
A podcast by real journalists doing real journalism that is also funny, irreverent and heterodox.
