Fred, Carrie, and their Portlandia podcast are just the biggest spark of joy.
I love listening to all of their insights, and getting a glimpse into their sweet friendship. It’s also an excuse to rewatch Portlandia, which I am so excited for!
I love listening to the episodes and then calling my dad afterwards to discuss. I’m thankful for this avenue of getting closer to him, and I’m so thankful that this podcast came out when it did!

Portlandia has been my go to favorite show for years and I love hearing the behind the scenes commentary for insight into how the sausage is made.
C0L3SLAW · Oct 2026
I was looking forward to this podcast, as I certainly enjoyed the show. It has some (admittedly, not many) interesting moments but they get lost among the repetitive conversation. The two get stuck on something and drive it into the ground, circling the drain with the same comments in different iterations. I really mean it when I say this show could be massively improved by an editor who cuts down those long, repetitious stretches. Even when they wrap up the show, it seems to take them about 12 minutes on average to actually say goodbye. I’m frankly baffled by the lack of concision. I share these notes in the hopes that they’ll actually work to improve these issues. There could be something good here but they haven’t found it yet.
