Customer Reviews
Up there with the best
As a subscriber to any number of comedy podcasts Cole,Vanessa and guests provide one of the funniest out there. Listening to them meandering through the weeks weird and wonderful celebrity news has caused some lol moments with the resultant curious looks by strangers. Check out their website too you can tell how much work and care they put in. Wish I could of come up with a funny review to do them justice but well meaning will have to do.
Ps. note to Itunes you need a spellchecker as it's really weird having to think about how to spell words in this day and age.
Love it
I want to help everything
Uk listener loves PMC
As a massive UK pop culture geek I was crying out for a podcast that was similarly inclined. I stumbled across this little beauty after getting tired of the same old UK shows and what a great move that was. Vanessa is potentially the funniest podcaster in the world and the guests on the show are always inciteful and well chosen. I started listening this week and have already listened to about 30 shows as its just brilliant. I was worried that many of the references would be too US based but their is a great variety of discussion and guests.
Can't reccommend it highly enough.
PS: Vanessa- the more you do the Hollywood producer voice the better , 'right'.
