I first discovered this show at DragonCon in 2015. I went to hear the MST3K cast, but left as a devoted Person of the World. I enjoy listening every week. I am constantly surprised by the fact the topics that may sound like they would be the least interesting, often result in the most entertaining debates. Mark and Hal clearly enjoy talking with each other, and always make the listener feel like they are included in the conversation. Their presence on social media, and interactions with the People of the World in social media platforms and YouTube town halls add to that feeling. Mark, Hal, producer Ken Plume, researcher Kate McManus, and everyone else connected to this show make it a joy to listen to!
I love listening to these two friends cover trivial debates! They tell wonderfully funny stories while still being amazingly thorough in their research. It’s such a joy to sit in; then I take the debates home to my husband!
I've listened to Thrilling Adventure Hour through it's entire original podcast run, and Welcome to Night Vale since its inception. And yet, somehow, it took me 6 YEARS after We Got This started to stumble upon it. Mark recently guested on Good Morning Night Vale and they mentioned the pod. I was shocked, I tell you, SHOCKED!!! "I love Mark & Hal," I thought. "How did I miss this?!" Since then, I've started listening and am already 25 episodes in (long work hours help). I love this show, even when I disagree with their decisions. I love podcasts that make you feel like you're part of the conversation, and too often I find myself talking/yelling back to the hosts. I love Mark & Hal's rapport; their friendship is markedly endearing. I also have really enjoyed their guests so far.
We Got This has been one of my favorite podcasts since I started listening in 2016, and since we’ve been stuck inside during the pandemic, it’s become even more so. The podcast picks an “important” topic to decide during each episode (such as Best Pop Tart Flavor, or Should You Put Ketchup on a Hot Dog) and reaches a conclusion while discussing facts, opinions, and personal anecdotes. Whether they’re talking about which Willy Wonka kid is the worst, or whether “cookies or bars” are better, Mark and Hal always provide warm, funny, friendly, self-aware, and often educational conversational chats about interesting topics that keep me company while driving, cleaning, or just hanging out. I don’t know whether I enjoy more the genuine affection and silly banter between these two longtime friends & talented performers talking to each other and us, the “People of the World;” the fun discussion topics; or the occasional (heh) tangents and impromptu skits - but whatever these two are talking about, it’s always a good time. (And props also to their producer Ken Plume for his good work in editing and producing the show.) They also include talented and fun guests on many episodes, which adds variety and different viewpoints. I 110% recommend We Got This with Mark and Hal to everyone (it’s family-friendly) and suggest you give it a listen. Thanks, Mark & Hal, for being your awesome selves and for sharing your thoughts and company with all of us. The People of the World love you for it.
