The charm of the show lies in its unique ability to tackle everyday challenges with a quirky, lighthearted approach that feels genuine and relatable. Each episode takes...”Read full review »

“Omg I’m so happy it’s back! I’ve just listened to the newest episode about shawarma and fear of commitment (trust me,it’s as weird and great as it sound), and it was amazing! It’s so funny and they actually find simple ways to help people.”
“This show and Jonathan Goldstein’s shows make me realize how wonderful Canada is.
Silly and fun while also tackling actual issues. How do they do it?
Oh Canada! 🇨🇦
Please come back!”

“Somewhere between “Nathan for You” and Gimlet’s “Heavy weight”. Very absurd but also very touching at times.
One of my favourite cbc podcasts, I hope they make some new episodes once things go back to normal.”

“Please bring this show back. I find myself smiling multiple times every episode. I heard this described as Nathan for You in podcast form and it is, but less cringey. It’s heartwarming and humorous and I love listening.”

“Have you ever listened to something that just makes you so happy to hear it? I love how the concept is helping people. I’m so excited for everyone who accomplished their goals and at the end of a full day binge fest I still can’t get enough!”

“Occasional good ideas discarded for stupid ones. I felt like my time was hijacked. Only could stomach three episodes before deleting. Not helpful or insightful, more of a joke I think than anything. Professionally produced and put together, but ultimately not a useful podcast, which is more of a...”Read full review »
“Self-help by two regular dudes. Sometimes they hit it out of the park, but most of the time they totally miss their mark. Regardless of the result, the joy is in the journey.
Just the fact that they hear people out and try to help them, actually does help.
It’s a Canadian This American Life, but...”Read full review »

“I loved the first season of this podcast! It’s lighthearted humour and relatability is so enjoyable and kept me smiling the whole way through. The unconventional methods employed to achieve each subject’s small goals is not only entertaining, but also serves as a reminder not to take life and our...”Read full review »
“It’s a cool idea for a podcast, except that the person who is supposed to be helping people comes off as thoughtless and not remotely concerned about helping others. He just wants a platform for his humour, which is unfortunately not very effective. The editing is overkill. This is a really...”Read full review »

“This is my new favourite podcast. I have many I like and this is the first time I have felt driven to write a review. Heartfelt, funny and honest, I love these guys. I was binge listening until I realized there’s only one season so far :( Please make Season 2!”
“I finally found my people. This speaks to my soul. No joke. Though I do laugh out loud (LOL) often every episode.
YAHOO! Keep up the good work, gang.”

“This is just the loveliest podcast. I laughed, I cried, and laughed again while I was crying. Human and honest, each episode is like a sweet little nugget of maple candy for the body and mind.”
“I’m 2 episodes in and I already want these guys to help me fix something in my life! I’m making a list. Adulting is so hard but everyone pretends they are pros at it, including myself. Hopefully we’ll get some new episodes soon.”

“I had tears of joy while listening today. Great job.
And I lost my mind a little every time you mentioned Brake Master Cylinder (or is it Break Master Cylinder). What a brilliant name.”
“I didn’t notice the “comedy” categorization of this podcast and legitimately thought this was a self improvement show. Found myself laughing uncontrollably at every episode. No idea how a reputable organization like the CBC entrusted programming to them, but so glad they did. Well done gentlemen,...”Read full review »

“Love the podcast! I hope Subway Sandwiches™️ rewards Andrew appropriately for his many years as their unofficial spokesperson. A 16 foot party sub should do it.
Keep up the great work guys!”
“These guys have me smiling the whole way through the podcast. The things they come up are silly and don’t always work out but it’s always a good ending.”

“I was first drawn to this podcast - the idea of helping people achieve small* goals and celebrate that. What I wasn’t prepared for was the weird unexpected ways the presenters go about getting there.
It’s out of the box, left of field, overly dramatic and as a result - hilarious. The number of...”Read full review »
