“Fun show: 2 veterans of podcasting having silly chats about lighthearted a.k.a. “Upworthy” news stories. Will be missed in my weekly rotation.”

“Just love the easy chatter and Tod’s subtle wit and delivery in contrast to Alison’s curiosity and just put it out there style. I have all of the podcasts Alison is a part of and I love all of them. On a side note, her husband Daniel on Alison Rosen is Your New Best Friend sometimes makes side...”Read full review »

“Tod n Alison are the ebony and ivory of podcasting. Both smart and funny, this podcast is mostly devoid of politics - which is refreshing. I hate it when I’m listening to a favorite pod and the host takes a hard right turn and starts ranting about politics. It really ruins it for me and often I...”Read full review »

“I follow Alison to almost every podcast she hosts or guests on. This show is overall good. Tod’s 1950s dad schtick tho…i don’t think there’s been an episode where he hasn’t blindly made some vaguely misogynistic comment. Ep 42, for example, they talked about the adult models from tv past and he...”Read full review »

“Love this show! I kick off every Saturday morning with Tod and Alison for some fun news stories and relatable stories about their weeks. The hosts have wonderful chemistry that make this a must-listen podcast. As a South Bay native like Tod, I especially appreciate the stories of his teen years...”Read full review »

“Tod is INSANE! Zucchini is one of the nicest vegetables on God’s green earth! Circles of zucchini about .75cm thick, cooked in olive oil until a bit brown on each side. HEAVEN. Also, thin asparagus (thick ones taste a bit woody) cooked al dente and paired with heirloom tomato slices with a...”Read full review »

“"The Will Smith thing came up. Oh No. So I mentioned something innoculous about it."
Tod Perry reaches for the word innocuous but thinks the word is innoculous. Alson, where did you find this extremely dumb dummy and when are you going to dump him?
The show is maybe okay but Tod Perry...”Read full review »

They give each other enough room to make a point without stepping on a potentially clever line (which makes me crazy when some other podcasters...”Read full review »

“I have always been a huge fan of Tod’s old Far Out podcast, and am so glad to see that he has one with Alison because I loved hearing them on 97.1 KLSX before that. I am enjoying the banter and interesting personal stories interjected with whatever news stories they cover!”
