Sarahs so bossy but she means well

Brainy, bingeable & brilliant banter

I learn something new every time I listen but I also find the hosts unbelievably funny, and relatable. Their banter makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, like we're in the room with them. If someone mentions beanie babies, tetris or nuns - I have 3 incredible tales ready to go, all because of this podcast! Everytime I've recommended it to a friend, they love it, it's one of those podcasts that everyone can find an episode that they enjoy, there's so many to choose from now!

The things really are fascinating…

I love the range of interesting topics this podcast covers and the amusing way Kyle and Adam cover them. Their overview of the Chinchilla kidnapping is my favourite so far - truth is stranger than fiction!
