book "Paul" and "Sasha" or whoever they really are from the podcast "Community News with Paul and Sasha". Like you they are smart, funny, quick, and full of heart. I love your show and theirs and would so much love to hear an episode of you all together talking about...Read full review »

This show is just really funny, uplifting and sweet. The pep talks at the end of every episode are great, the host Josh Gondelman is great, guests are great, it’s all great. I hope that we can get new episodes sometime in the future.

This show is such a treat. It’s nice to laugh out loud during a long commute. Thank you!!

The cornucopia of pep talks was delightful to listen to. Thanks for putting together this witty collection. It helped make the long drive home after Thanksgiving weekend a little more tolerable.

Thank you so much for your work. I hope the hiatus won’t be too long.

Witty and upbeat. I’ve been binge listening to all the previous episodes instead of reading the news.

I’ve heard Josh on The Bugle Podcast Multiverse and he is always an absolute delight, this is like a ray of badly needed sunshine during the apocalypse - it might not fix everything but you still feel better because it’s there
MisterDanielM via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/25/21
If you haven’t been listening to this show (like I wasn’t until all too recently), then you’re missing out! This podcast is smart, joyful, and inspiring. You will not find a better way to spend 30 minutes at the end of your week. Josh is a ray of sunshine who brings out the very best in all of...Read full review »

I love this podcast so much. It’s hilariously funny and relentlessly positive without a hint of cheesiness. Host Josh Gondelman is absolutely delightful with a warm heart and a quick wit.
Britta17 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/14/21
I just found this show a few weeks ago after first hearing Josh on Wait Wait... Don't Tell me and The Bugle. He's such a positive person and this show is fun and uplifting. I've been catching up on the old episodes and I've enjoyed them all.Read full review »

the best podcast! just a complete delight every time. perfect for introverts who wish they could hang out with their funniest friends without feeling pressed to contribute and also for extroverts pained that they ever have to spend time alone (now you don’t! here are some friends making each...Read full review »

The best part of my week
MaryAlena via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/21
Love the guests, love the point system, love the pep talks. It truly makes my day.
PDXHamsterCat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/21
I used to commute more, therefore I listened to podcasts more, therefore I’ve had to cull to bare ‘essentials’ that I have to actually make time for rather than using to pass the time. ‘Make My Day’ has risen to the top of my list. I’ve listened to comedy podcasts for years…Josh is one of the...Read full review »

Come for the laughs, stay for the pep talk 🤣 Such a great listen every week!!
Newborn Parents via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/29/21
Make My Day is Prozac in audio format. Josh Gondelman’s interview style and banter are the bubbles after every refreshing sip of top shelf seltzer water at the end of the day. A much needed beacon in the nightmare that was 2020, Make My Day has made me a GondelFAN for life (or at least until he...Read full review »
rabaker4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/29/21
Every time I ever heard Josh Gondelman appear on anything, I always found him entirely delightful. Finally, after appearing on an episode of Judge John Hodgeman, and finding he had a podcast of his own, and I've been hooked ever since. The genuine delight the host takes in the answers to...Read full review »

I found this pod through Josh being on Wait Wait & I’m so happy I did! I can’t get enough of his witty, silly humor & I've loved being introduced to some of the awesome guests I wasn’t familiar with. A perfect, much-needed lightness for my day!Read full review »

Pleasant to the ear and mind
Flies twice a week via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/21/21
What a delight! Josh Gondelman is the most uplifting voice in podcast land. I checked this out cause Gondelman was my fave guest on “Lovett or Leave It”, “Wait Don’t Tell Me”, and “Judge John Hodgman”. His pod is positive, creative, quirky, always silly and sometimes quite sincere without ever...Read full review »

I love this show. Josh is wonderful and so enthusiastic about the whole thing, and it a half hour or so of positivity in a ... less than positive world. Highly recommended
Gaijin in the countryside via Apple Podcasts · Japan · 05/16/21
Josh is a wonderful host and comedian. The guests are all interesting and funny. The format allows for something new every week. A true delight and gem of a show.
Tim------ via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/14/21
Creative in its concept with buoyant humor throughout, what a fun, refreshing listen this is with Josh and his fantastic guests. Every single episode is a true delight!
Tukays via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/13/21
Josh is honestly one of the nicest people in the world. I love listening to him, and the guests he brings on every week are a delight as well. We so rarely get something just genuinely GOOD in our entertainment landscape these days, it's both refreshing to see and amazing how well Josh pulls...Read full review »
WearySky via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/13/21
My only complaint about this otherwise exemplary show is the lack of warnings. Not only did I spit out water multiple times, but when I switched to coffee I choked on that. I also laughed too hard to breathe during several episodes. If I had had a warning going in, I would know to only listen...Read full review »

If you know anything about his standup, you know Josh Gondelman is hilarious. He has now developed and refined a unique podcast format...which is notable given all the podcasts out there! All that is to say, listen and subscribe! You will smile and laugh a lot!
oasis3582 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/13/21
I just recently found out about this podcast and I’m now hooked. Josh has the most contagious laugh and an amazing assortment of wonderful guests. I love the premise, it’s clever & fun and a little bit different each week. I think my favorite parts are the pep talks at the end. Of course we...Read full review »
Rain Drop 60 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/21
Throughout the pandemic I have gone to work at my actual workplace once a week. As the mother of two young boys that fight all the time and have been out of school this entire year, that day has become my favorite day of the week. The day gets even brighter because it is the day Make My Day Comes...Read full review »

I get excited every Tuesday that I have a new Make My Day to listen to. If you’re looking for something to cheer you up for just a moment in this bleak world, please give it a lesson. Definitely worth your time!
Keltyyy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/21
This podcast is a mood booster. If you need respite from bleakness but are allergic to saccharine content, put this in your ears; feel your heart leap up; and notice your eyes do not roll.
shellquoi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/18/21
This podcast is what we all need right now. Fun, funny, upbeat and sweet!
Eash Ro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/21
Josh finds light and quirk everywhere. Listening to this podcast makes me feel hopeful.
faenun via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/21
Such a great show!! I look forward to it each week!! The creativity and humor are both incredible!!
LJRMILL via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/21
I could not be happier to have discovered not only this podcast, but also Josh himself! I enjoy every single episode and it never fails to improve my day, particularly the pep talks!
jilsef via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/24/21
I discoveredJosh on “Wait Wait Don’t Tell”. He is my favorite panelist on the show and I am always super happy when he is on. This week I finally figured out that he had his own podcast and I’m loving it.
AudibleAngel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/14/21
This is a funny show and Josh is a real sweetie pie
Gompy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/21
This show is a refreshing break from the weight of the world.
amiller92 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/21
When I laugh really hard, my dog gets super excited and she starts doing zoomies. This show made me laugh hard enough that she zoomied headfirst into a door.
Vogelchords via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/21
I know Josh from The Bugle and his uncanny likeness to the tech billionaire on The Last Post. This is a delightful concept that really lifts the mood and raises more than a few smiles. I give it 128 points :)
SmartUK via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/08/21
This is such a brilliant idea, and such wonderful execution. I absolutely love listening, the guests are consistently great, and Josh really has a talent for spotlighting some of the best parts of each of them.
lookimwritingareview via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/21
By far the most delightful podcast I listen to. Both Josh and the guests exude warmth and a good natured humor. As if that wasn’t enough, it is also hilarious.
Donna Wardenaar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/21
Josh Gondelman is a gosh darn delight and the sound of his laugh is a treat. The guests are always warm and funny. It’s just a terrific show to listen to when you want something light and soothing. I mean, do I really need a murder podcast keeping me up night? (The answer is “no”. No I do not.)
