I've been listening to you for over 3 years, and I'm finally caught up! I'm excited to be able to comment on related topics and join the conversation in real time.
Kara! Why would you say that this perpetrator should get special treatment if he went to an ivy league college? Please take a look at your bias!
Liza pronouncing Reuters "rooters" made me laugh!
I can't get it to play
it's definitely not cool or funny to disrespect the military!! Those people, myself and son included, put their lives on the line to ensure you have your freedoms. so please, don't disrespect the military
cara just said this is SNL, we'll be right back
You guys! You have to watch Times Square with Trini Alvarado!! 80’s movie about teenage misfit runaways
this episode won't play. how do I report that
Thank you for pronouncing Kearney correctly. That’s my hometown and I was thrilled to hear it mentioned on the pod.
one night, I literally double featured The Loud House Movie and Leaving Las Vegas.
Hey ladies, I've been listening for a few weeks and I've gotten very quickly obsessed with you two! That said, with how big into Broadway actors you two are, I'm surprised you didn't mention that The Machine's manager in this episode was James Monroe Iglehart, the Genie from Aladdin. Still love you two, though, you're awesome!

I love your friendship. Makes me smile.
My dad used to give me flat ginger ale when I was sick, too. #CanadianTrueCrime
of course people live in ibiza????
here in the UK like...why you worrying so much about tips! also, no ones ever comped me shit whatever that means so recognise your privilege and stop whining it makes you sound a bit douchy
Did not appreciate the Michael Jackson bashing at the end. You are reading comments and stories from people who are only guessing what happened again a man who cannot defend himself. so not cool.
I absolutely love this episode of SVU too. ICONIC!!
