But when the lie at the center of their success started to unravel, Rob and Fab would discover the hard way the difference between star power and real power.

Light hearted commiseration and comedy

As with any talkshow, the quality is largely dependent on the guests, so it does vary from week to week. Overall host Jameela Jamil is entertains with a disarming self deprecating style. Stories range from relatable to wild. Not the funniest podcast I’ve ever listened to, but I always walk away with a few more dopamine hits. Would 10/10 recommend replacing morning radio with this show for your commute.
