“Occasionally very enjoyable show, let down by two of the hosts disagreeing with or shouting down the third guy (the one who says all the interesting stuff) on juvenile, easy grounds. guests are always too American to tolerate”

“i’ve been listening to the “cabin” series, two episodes left and i’m trying to make them last as long as possible because it feels so good to hear. this series coincided with my own moving (back) to maine, and the fear of loss of connection that comes with such a thing. we are gonna be okay. also...”Read full review »

“I recently found this podcast and enjoy these guys, really dig the format and content. Have listened back to 2017 and the catalogue has lots of hits, couple of episodes don’t stick but...overall thanks a bunch keep it up.”

“I listened to the cabin series on Ted K. and found it a boring, shallow, bad faith reading. Based on the show description I expected a open minded attempt to understand the ideas and motivations of K.
The hosts keep saying they don’t understand what he’s trying to say, or complaining about the...”Read full review »

I find myself coming back, over and over and over, finding new depth and insight each time I re-encounter existing episodes.
New episodes are delicious; sometimes gourmet, sometimes comfort or soul food, always...”Read full review »

“Relentless picnic makes me also feel okay about myself, that there are other people out there that think like me and want to talk like I do and think like I do. Wish I could listen to this everyday / just talk with you all. Thank you.”

“Real good podcast. The cave and wreckage. Are in a 3 month rotation. I wish they engaged in more of a political debate sometimes. When they talk politics they often come off as one sided and arrogant.”

“And only occasionally the cringe-inducing self-love of the tryhard part of the party, near the beginning, when all the first-years are desperate to impress the faculty. More often the atmosphere is that of the later portion of the party, when everyone is well-lubricated enough to relax. All the...”Read full review »

“Choosing a podcast is a problem of making good use of your limited time.

You can’t even sample a respectable fraction of it. As a...”Read full review »

Essentially, three youngish, well-read intellectual American guys irreverently, humorously and digressively improv, debate and confabulate over current affairs, politics, art and ideas. 'Word Alert' was one of my favourites. After...”Read full review »
