Customer Reviews
A great daily listen
Low Budget has moved up to my favourite must listen podcast. Marc Chambers and Tod Perry have excellent chemistry and bring the funny with 3 half hour episodes per week with mini releases in between. Regular guests include John Salwin and Mike Cioffi (Producer of the Adam Carolla Podcast). The show varies from comedic takes on news and popular geek culture to the occasional skit.
Canadian support.
This podcast will make you laugh... unless you're a feminist. Feminists don't laugh. Good luck getting on the Ace Network guys!
funny!
It's like listening to 'Scrubs' but without Zach Braff or a hospital.
