Quite Amusing

Binged all available episodes in one sitting. Belly laughed on each one. So many plot twists I did NOT see coming. People are crazy and entertaining.

So much fun

This podcast is particularly enjoyable because it’s entertaining and educational enough to get absorbed into, but has just enough banter and discussion so that you don’t have to hang off of every word to understand what’s going on. I get a good chuckle and I learn something new. That’s my idea of a great podcast.

Most amazing hosts

I can’t believe someone had the nerve to call Elizabeth Dutton ‘awful’. She is brilliant and hilarious. I could listen to her tell me a story about literally anything and I’m positive she would make it amusing and well worth my time. I listen to ALOT of podcasts. Many hours of my day are spent listening to different hosts, different formats, and different topics. This one is definitely in my top 5. I typically despise excessive host to host banter with their cringey efforts to be funny, but these two are not that at all. I find them truly charming and witty. They provide just the right amount of commentary and tend to stick to the story instead of going off on some obnoxious tangent like so many do. The host(s) make or break a podcast for me and I can make that decision within the first 10 minutes of a single episode. I’m hooked on this one. I find myself genuinely laughing periodically through each episode.

A delight

Wonderful rapport between Elizabeth and Zaron. Charming even when they drift off topic and manage to find their way back

Awful Hosts

I subscribed to this podcast from the trailer ads on audible. I was excited to listen but couldn't stand it. The stories seem interesting, but the hosts of this podcast are awful and spend too much time engaged in banter between the two of them thinking they are comedians. I felt the details were drawn out before getting into the story
