“I started listening to the pod from the beginning in March of 2021 and have now finished every episode. I had high hopes even through Joey. I struggled deciding what to rate this because there are sooo many great moments of the pod! I started at 5 stars and subtracted based on the quality of the bad moments:
The hosts CANNOT stop talking about themselves. Erin’s incessant need to be the center of attention brought my rating down a star. We don’t need to hear every other episode that you think you’re Rachel. Additionally, Jamie, we don’t need to hear you compare yourself to Chandler every episode either. The constant need to remind the listeners that you have Main Character Syndrome is unnecessary and quite frankly, really off-putting. To their credit, the hosts eventually stopped, but 100+ episodes of that was over the top in the first place.
Which brings me to my second star deduction. When people give you constructive criticism, your best bet is to take what they’re saying into account and not be defensive. When your listeners all agree something is wrong on the pod, something is wrong. I forget the episode, but you two responded to constructive comments sooo rude and defensive, I forgot you guys were supposed to be in your 30’s. Your listeners are the reasons you even have a podcast, maybe care about their opinion a bit more.
Finally I think the real issue this pod faced is that Krista ended up leaving. Which really isn’t anyones fault, but man does the show take a dive after Krista. She was the perfect equalizer to Erin and Jamie’s need to be the center of attention. Long live Kris the Doyle!
So we arrive at 2 stars. Which feels so low for how much I love Friends and how excited I was to listen to this pod. Like many other reviews, I also dislike the 20ish minutes out of an hour they spend talking about the episodes. Again, this podcast isn’t about the hosts lives. It’s about Friends. Obviously chat about your life but when your life chat is longer than your Friends episode chat, it kinda makes the podcast not really worth listening to.
To anyone thinking of listening to this pod in the future, I actually do recommend it! But I also love Friends enough to power through the bad parts of this podcast.”

“As a guest on the podcast I was SHOCKED to find out they need more rates and reviews! This podcast is like hanging out with a couple friends, but friends that are funnier than your real life friends. Kind of like the show FRIENDS. Anyway, it's real good. I loved The One with the Hostage...”Read full review »
