Customer Reviews
Great Pod
Big fan! Evan and Amelia you are such a funny peek into genZ Brooklyn culture, and your takes on the GIRLS and how they represent 2012 culture are so interesting. HOWEVER, the Iris Apatow episode really illustrates how a (very) boring, unfunny guest who clearly didn’t take the time to analyze the episode can ruin the weekly ep. Pls keep booking comedic guests who are GIRLS diehards and who deserve a spot on this fun show :)) Also thank you for your cultural updates - without you I wouldn’t know Cha cha matcha is cringe.
Gen Z garbage
I was really excited to listen to a rewatch podcast of one of my favorite shows Girls however was very disappointed when I tuned into this podcast. I only made it about 4 episodes in when I couldn’t bare to listen anymore. I was expecting was in-depth discussion of the series with attention to the nuanced topics it covers but instead, the hosts turn every episode into discussion about themselves and their ideologies. Yes I understand that some introductions are in order when beginning a podcast but the focus continued to stay on the hosts themselves rather than the Girls series, even several episodes in. I don’t think this should be called a rewatch podcast and anyone looking for that should look elsewhere.
how do I say this. I am so sorry
Evan and Amelia… babes… I’ve never felt so strongly about a podcast as to leave a review, but I had to. I know you mean well but this podcast is not what it could be, and not what you think it is… I think maybe it’s because neither of you can generate unique thoughts while speaking into the microphone?? which sounds terrible? but every time I try to listen to this podcast I sink into misery, 1) because I’m actively losing precious brain cells and time on this planet, and 2) because I fear for a future (and present) in which this show is an acceptable form of entertainment and / or review… i can only listen to about four minutes before the dread sinks in… i know the pod is supposed to be funny, but this is so serious to me. The vocal fry + dumb dumb convos + transplant gorilla grip on the fraction of nyc you inhabit is just not working for me. and I say this as a veteran transplant myself. Living in bushwick as thirty-somethings does not entitle you to run a podcast, especially about THIS particular show — it should in fact deter you from the very venture… please, you can’t keep doing this. it’s literally ruining my life. But I do have to say, I like the instagram content, and I love both of your dead-eyed stares in the video clips. I’m so sorry but it had to be said, it would eat away at me otherwise. I truly wish the best of luck to you both and blessings as well 🫠
