    This is gold
    Their discussions and Listener Asks are the best. Thoughtful insights, funny and ongoing positive banter.

    So lovely!!
    I have binged the entire library & you ladies have hit it out of the park (sorry, I’m American)! My parents, aunts & uncles were all Irish born and I have so enjoyed your epic turns of phrase…reminds me of so many Thanksgivings & Christmases & funerals - just hilarious. But it’s the depth of your wells of empathy that is nothing short of astounding.

    Oh please come back for another Series!
    I was so happy when you both came back for Series 3. We all want more! The warm blanket of your empathy and sparkle of the humor between what can only come from such two long and loving friends is just what we need to start the day (or fill in the blank) Xx

    Wonderful Fun and Helpful, Too
    Their advice stays with me in the most helpful way. I was blown away by the definition of codependency. I had it wrong and now I get it. The words of wisdom about difficult family members and conspiracy theorists was a revelation: people do and say things because it gives them comfort. Boom! This has made it so much easier to get through my day, and the giggles are appreciated, too. Thank you!

    Very Funny
    Advice dispensed with common sense, compassion and much humour. I was thrilled to find out that I'm not the only person whose eye glasses list.
