Pristine

My friends and family would tell you, I listen to a lot of podcasts. So far this is my favorite. I also love Don't Ask Tig, and I feel like the advice on that show is actually helpful, if only to not take things so seriously. Tig and Cheryl have very different comical tones, and their harmony is, in a word: pristine.

Brightens my day

This podcast is great! Tig and Cheryl are a great combination I love both their voices and when they laugh I laugh! I am going through a difficult time and I am so glad I can listen to the podcast and forget my cares for awhile. You two make it seem like everything will be okay!

The Foreshadowing Birds

The foreshadowing of the birds feverishly tweeting during his interview & the number of times he points out those damn dishes was enough for me too Tig. I can't wait to listen to more episodes.

Doc is irrelevant

I thought I wouldn’t want to listen to this. I could not care less about Kenny G. But you know, I do care about laughing . Worth it. Every time . Are there beans to spill ? Not so much this time . Did not matter so much .

Their insanity is the subject- doc is incidental

You can't have more fun than listening to these 2 talented and hilarious women talk about whatever pops into their head at any given moment, while occasionally referencing a documentary film for some unknown reason. Their joy in each other and their friendship is contagious. I love them -true story.

Love it

I love it. And since I need at least fifteen words I'll just say that I love it. I really love it.
