loved it!

First episode was great! I recognized Nadiya's voice because I watched her baking show on Netflix and I also watched her in Britain's Great Baking Show. I love baking competitions. It was great to get to know the personal relationships of both couples. Oh and Sabrina is great! Her voice is so soothing and she is just a natural at this. I love her! Ofcourse I love Idris (who doesn't?) How I wish I could see them and guests in person. We need a televised series, it's that good.

Five Stars All Around!

I didn't know much about Elba's, but was intrigued by the title. wow! I am so uplifted by all of the "couples" they have interviewed! The holistic expressiveness that breeds such a diverse human experience to this podcast is divine! I am enjoying the banter and laughter of everyone interviewed and the hosts. A shout out to the theme song Idris sings! Makes me smile and wriggle with joy to hear such fun being had. Thanks lady and gentleman... the world needs this.
