Customer Reviews
I laughed, I cried
I kept ignoring the No Dunks plugs for this show — thought it wasn’t my type of podcast. Flash forward a year and I’ve listened to every episode (ever). Matt, JD, Rachel, and guests are hilarious (and sometimes incisive) on any and every topic. Give it a try, you won’t regret it.
This is good.
If, like me, you always thought that The Complainted Area should become its own pod, you will love ITG!
Matt and JD are known delights, Rachel is a revelation. Who knew Digby had treasures that don’t come from the sea!
Basketball?
Matt and JD act like they don’t like basketball but only have basketball related guests on.
