“This is absolutely the best podcast and my favorite.
But guys - I love both Danny and Shawn’s styles respectively but wish they’d flow a bit better together. In particular Danny can seem condescending when Shawn makes a joke-he gets silent then says ok then let’s move on bro, whatever, something dismissive. Danny has a more sarcastic/sharp-tongued sense of humor while Shawn is a bit corny and silly. Danny’s comments makes Shawn’s humor fall flat and I find myself with secondary embarrassment, like why are you making your boy look bad? Shawn often stutters a bit after or loses a train of thought. Thing is, Shawn has some seriously wild experiences with intense first-hand accounts to share. And he has done some serious partying himself, immersing himself in lots of scenes. Danny has great stories too but glorifies his time at Vice which comes off as forcing himself to be relevant - the dude doesn’t have to, be real and stop trying so hard, what you have to share is amazing. He should listen to Shawn more, make it more collaborative instead of a low-key competition. The way they are now makes it clear they’ve never met in person and are in separate cities, just coming together for the sake of the podcast, not a connection they’d have for any other reason.”
