What listeners say

I have been listening to these bonkers humans ramble on and goof off for over 10 years. It will forever be my comfort podcast and the show I dive into the archives for whenever I have ran out of my other pods or need a pick me up. When I’m in a sad or bad mood, they never fail to cheer me up. The negative reviews make me lol. This is in fact a comedy podcast to those who were unaware… and ps. 90% of podcasts are just friends gabbing together so not sure what kind of ground breaking format these people were expecting when they turned on HDTGM and discovered it’s just people talking?!? Funny stuff. Ok love you three bye! Please never stop making these shows I couldn’t bear an end to this era

Y’all are so entertaining you’ve help me set PR after PR while running. I ran 6.5 miles with with a stroller listening to the Circus Island ep. Just a fun, niche podcast: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s like sitting with your favorite people and listening to them talk about a terrible movie. Always a great time. Thank you!

From Jan 29 2024. Fascinating and funny. The conversation beginning at 56:55 should be examined by PhDs and taught at Universities to demonstrate every possible way communication can break down. Everyone is talking past each other and June is assuming they boys have information they don’t. At 1:12:25 JM almost nails the question that needs to be asked of June, but does not receive a satisfactory answer. The question June must answer is, What would crediting multiple monkeys achieve that crediting one monkey does not?

Maybe I started listening to this podcast expecting the wrong thing. I thought I was going to learn a lot of behind-the-scenes info from these well-known actors and comedians but instead 90% of their show is them laughing hysterically at their own jokes and talking over one another. That leaves a mere 10% of real substance. And June, bless, barely contributes anything but man does she try. She frequently starts sentences without a clear endpoint, and her two co-hosts allow her to ramble on for 30+ seconds sometimes, which is a long time to be waiting for a cohesive thought to form. If you’re the type who loves sitting with three incredibly stoned people who all think they’re the funniest person at the party, you’ll probably love this show. But if you, like me, came to this podcast thinking the hosts would actually answer the question How Did This Get Made?, you’ll be disappointed.
