    There a lot of negativity !!
    I found this podcast through a couple comedians I like who were guests. There some episodes that are really fun. However, if the host doesn’t like the guests’ choice of topic or doesn’t share their interest. He gets really judgmental , condescending & negative.Considering the theme of the pod is things that makes you feel good the host attitude is counter intuitive.

    This show is a fantastic trip down memory lane. It’s a great show to listen to on your work commute. Puts me in a good mood and always brings back a rush of great memories. Meg and Julian are excellent.

    My favorite pod
    I love this show. Meg and Julian are great and I really enjoy all of the guests. It’s been a great way to discover new comedians and I always love the nostalgia that listening brings. Some favorites have been Kyle Kinane, Gareth Reynolds, Sarah Tiana, and John Mulaney. Keep up the good work, love it!

    Hilarious! Co-host Meg is a DELIGHT!
    The Soft Spot is a true comedy gem in the podcast-sphere. Meg and Julian bring all the fun, laughs, and nostalgia. This podcast will give you genuine LOLs and keep you coming back for more. Meg is hilarious, charming, and witty; Julian brings all the dad jokes and funny childhood stories. Together, Meg and Julian are truly a dynamic duo, and play off each other very well. Give this a listen - you will get hooked! Also, bonus - Meg is an artist and I just started following her on Instagram and she is super talented. Check it out!

    These two are so adorable together!! As a listener, I must say that the love Meg and Julian have for each other genuinely comes across in my earbuds. I love hearing them crack each other up! With hilarious guests with eclectic tastes, every episode is a guaranteed trip to Nostalgiatown! I love learning about new topics alongside the hosts, and reminiscing about relatable content!

    Five Stars
    This podcast is perfect. When I’m listening, I truly I feel like I’m in the room with Megan and Julian; so much I have to keep reminding myself that I don’t actually know then. This is because they are just so genuine and real. The Soft Spot always makes me feel warm and cozy. This is my Soft Spot💕

    Fun
    I love the idea behind this podcast and they have some great guests. However Meg is so mean-girly to Julian it gets uncomfortable at times

    A Great Blue Trail for Nostalgiac Ski Bunnies
    Fun. Intelligent. Humorous. Digestible. Meg and Julian make it so easy to cruise through each episode. You'll soon learn they've been cool (like forever) and you'll feel like you are too cuz you can relate. Just don't go comparing your relationship against their chemistry, originality, or panache.
  • DougVHP
    Can’t get enough!
    Easily one of the best comedy podcasts out there! A great time!
  • enzen5
    I remember that!
    Thanks guys for bringing me back
  • Ninaka in JC
    Has great potential, but...
    I wish Julian would learn to be less intrusive when it comes to giving his input. He constantly cuts Meg and guests off when they are speaking, which is unfortunate; other than that, I really do enjoy the podcast.
  • smopesy
    Hits the spot!
    Great format and Meg and Julian work well together. Strongly recommend.
  • cgm26
    The BEST podcast for winding down
    If you like nice, smart, funny people talking about things they like in a smart, funny way, the Soft Spot is for you. My own soft spot? The Soft Spot Podcast.

  • Giacchettispaghetti
    If an old haunt was a podcast
    Love this show!!! Meg and Julian make you feel right at home! A great look back at pop culture over the years with interesting guests and lots of laughs!! You’re both killing it!! The show is so funny and relatable! Keep up the great work!!!
  • Rosenbird
    Authentic LOL’s
    Lately I find myself white-knuckling it to Wednesday’s when I can get my fix of my pretend bff’s Julian and Meg flirt/bicker/tease each other and their guests, unearth those big feelings of youth under the guise of pop culture obsessions, and remind me that my internal age is 13. The Soft Spot is MY soft spot. ❤️
  • Emily H R
    A real pick me up
    I find listening to these Meg and Julian to be consistently delightful. It is also a real treat to hear favorite comedians wax rhapsodic on their favorite guilty pleasures.

    The Perfect Antidote to a Crappy Commute!
    I love Meg and Julian! Cashmere for your ears!!! (Trademark that!) ;) Have been ringing cramped DC Metro trains to work this summer where everyone looks so serious and we are squished together. Not fun!! I listen to you guys and feel like I can relax and often find myself giggling on the subway. This podcast was recommended to me by my podcast app based on other things and I am so glad I checked it out! Highly recommend!
  • Ashintheburgh
    Always a good time.
    Just a warm, genuine podcast. Your favorite comedians talking about what hits their nostalgic soft spot. If I had an episode, it would be about cats, Total Recall, and my babysitter’s son letting me watch Alien at 5 years old.
  • Michael S. Rogers
    Great comfort show
    Super cozy and easy to listen to on long drives. The John Mulaney ep about mister rogers was awesome.
  • CrossFitJodi
    Like it and a suggestion
    Love the premise and enjoy the show. Julian, please stop talking over Meg and your guests. It’s frustrating when you as a question and then immediately answer it yourself.
  • ShevilKat
    Chill and reminisce
    Took a listen because it was the featured podcast (and Karen Kilgariff was on) and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it! Couldn’t subscribe fast enough. With all the crap that is going on in the world, this is a refreshing place to go to chill, laugh, and reminisce, and reboot.
  • Kim Hoffman
    Softer, Softest
    Meg and Julian, you slay me. I’ve been going through it lately, hard. And the Soft Spot leaves me with the softest feelings. For that I’m so thankful. Where to begin? Childhood Jams episode only confirmed that I love you guys dearly. Every single second made me smile and giggle. My own mini van moments were so similar. Julian describing listening to “Valerie” in the car as a kid in the 80s? Perfect. Meg fangirling over Andrew Lloyd Webber? Everything. Chills, you guys. I started with the Ghostwriter episode and went on from there because we are so cut from the same cloth. A true sweet spot in the podcast world for all the grownup kids out there.
  • huhwhatmusic
    Excellent
    Finally a comedy cast for adults that still have a posterior fontanelle.

    Comedy, woman and joy
    So glad I found this! Need more podcasts like this- nice to see someone doing something other than cold case true crime!
  • mayalyssa
    A delightful reprieve from the day
    This podcast is fun and hilarious enough to help me forget the dumpster fire of life that is 2018. The hosts are a hilarious team that balance the comedy and sincerity at all times. Cannot recommend it enough!
  • Shelby1380502
    Freakin Hilarious!!
    Omg you guys have me literally CACKLING as I walk around campus listening to this podcast. I am so happy this exists.
  • Aud7033
    The hug we all need right now.
    Like time traveling in your sleeping bag. Not the scary kid on a milk carton 80’s, but the Ms. Pac-Man at the Pizza Hut 80’s. Good memories. Good times.

    Love this show.
    I'm a big fan of "Julian Loves Music" so I followed him to this podcast and I love it. I'm glad to have another one added to my weekly rotation.

    Julian and Meg have created an amazing podcast that is so fun and easy to fall into. It's about feeling good and cozy and happy - in these days when every time I look at my phone, I get bombarded with stressful or irrelevant news - haivng the Soft Spot take me back to a nostalgic time of sultry sax solos and fuzzy memories is a perfect way to unwind after work.
