A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Just refreshing my review since it’s been a while. I can’t believe we’re approaching almost 10 years of Teen Creeps! This podcast still makes me laugh just as hard as it did at the beginning. It’s accompanied me on so many road trips and walks around my neighborhood. I go back and listen to old episodes sometimes. Thank you to the hosts for doing what you do!

Myfaultystars · Dec 2024

I’m so happy I found this podcast by happenstance, and now I’m a huge fan! Kelly and Lindsay have such spectacular chemistry, I find myself cackling alongside with them during each episode. If I could add a few more stars, I would. 😃 Thank you for being so awesome!

Jenny7Wren · Aug 2024

I love this show. I really do. But the hosts need to stop using this as an outlet for their existential grief. It’s draining and sad, and I feel worse after listening. All I wanted was to listen to a couple of funny people talk about an old EL Konigsberg book, not be reminded of everything that’s wrong in the world, and then have to fight off a panic attack. I doubt the hosts will ever read this, but fwiw, please remember that this is a comedy podcast, and people are coming to this podcast for some light. Talk to each other. Be there for each other. But it’s not fair to bring the audience on that ride when they didn’t sign up for it.

i’m late to the party but so glad i found it. it’s great to revisit the books of my youth with fun hosts and guests. the book discussions are lively and the tangents are illuminating. the Lifetime Casteel Event was an especially hilarious run of episodes.

holleeeeeeee · May 2023

If they would edit out all of the extra talk and just posted the part they actually talk about the book- these podcasts would be maybe 20 minutes long. I used to truly enjoy listening to them talk about the books that I loved as a child and that’s why I continued to listen all these years but now I find myself FF through so much of the extra, non-necessary chat that makes absolutely no sense to anyone but them. I think I’m almost done with this podcast which is unfortunate.
