Customer Reviews
Ep 94 Hunger Games
Considering it usually is about youthful Americans, this is a very amusing and entertaining pod.
I laugh at them and sometimes laugh with them.
Then occasionally this sort of episode happens along and bam!
Heavy heavy heavy but again I think it’s just what people need to hear.
Emotional and heartbreaking to hear of the 2 people in this episode who have gone through some tough times.
Mortified, I thank you and salute you !
From an English man across the pond.
Cracks me up every time
Never disappoints. You think it would be cringy, but the host’s framing of each reading and the humour that the diarists tell it with makes every one hilarious.
Love it
This is amazing I love it it is the best podcast to put u in a funny mood! So brilliant and random but great
