Love everything about this podcast!

Not trying to apply pressure but a part of me hopes Em and Rainbow make this forever. I think this podcast is so fun and the vibe is so special sometimes it kills me when I can’t just reply back to something they say. Their voices are so warm it feels like you’re good friends having a queer haikyuu chat (honestly my favorite kind lol) so if you’re thinking of listening do it!
