Read and write reviewsThree actor friends surprise each other with a celebrity guest. Loved as easy company and for the hosts' chemistry; the common knock is that it stays shallow and depends on whether you care about the guest.
Praised for
- Feels like hanging out with friends; many listen weekly as a routine.
- A-list guests who relax more than in a normal interview.
- Genuinely funny when the hosts needle each other.
Common criticisms
- Rarely goes deep; more 'famous people chatting' than conversation.
- Episodes live or die by the guest; some listeners cherry-pick.
- Celebrity-therapy moments can feel out of touch.
