Incredible

This show is absolutely incredible, I look forward to it every week and I really like this Jesse guy. He’s got a super cute voice and I love hearing him.

Love This Podcast!

This Podcast is excellent, and 95% of the time manages to perfectly express what is good (and what isn’t) about the show being covered. An especially good example is The Music Man (2022) episode, with spot on opinions about the changes made, and the casting decisions. While I obviously don’t agree with every single opinion on every show, the commentary given is often presented as their own personal opinions, and not Gospel. You guys keep doing what you’re doing 😊 #benbrantleyisoverparty

I'm rating this a Manchego...

Because it's my favorite cheese! The podcast is a ton of fun, with great conversations and strong-but-open-to-change opinions. In a recent episode, they even discussed how good a musical is, even if it's not for them. I was impressed. Too often people declare that anything not for them is bad, but Jess, Andrew, and Liz are open-minded and willing to discuss the positives of things even when it's not their cup of tea. The discord has great people talking about great shows, and is a very welcoming community. Thanks for such a fun time, Jess and Andrew and Liz (and Bree!)
