Customer Reviews
Should be 4 stars...
but since iTunes uses the obviously inferior 5 star system, I'll give Luke, Matt, and their guests 5 of 'em. A great concept that works extremely well as a podcast, the only complaint one could generate would be that it ends too soon. Equal parts funny, thought-provoking, and very listenable, you'll be right there with them, giving your ratings and hoping that, someday, they'll use your 'Blank this is Blank.'
Give RtU a listen and see if you're not assigning stars to cereal packages, public restrooms, and the other minutiae that make life frustratingly beautiful.
Satisfies my need to rate everything in life
Smart, funny and a welcome addition to my podcast library. Keep it up, guys!
Four stars (5 stars)
