Such a great podcast
It’s like sitting at a bar with friends talking about what’s going on. So much fun!

Laughing while I think
I love this show, would not miss an episode. Tom and Cecil make me laugh but they also make me think critically about the news.

Credulity is not a virtue
It’s a skeptical, political, and hilarious because if we don’t laugh we will break down and cry.

These Guys Are Funny!
I just started listening to this podcast a couple of weeks ago and love them! Try them out.

Great podcast, funny and informative
Tom & Cecil are to the secular community what Car Talk was to NPR So Far MY favorite podcast

Funny and serious at the same time
This show is fantastic. Tom and Cecil strike a difficult-to-achieve balance between being hilarious and being sober about serious topics. And their constant ribbing of Ian is always good for a chuckle (: I’m so glad there are 600+ episodes so I can keep listening ad infinitum!

Love it
They don’t get everything right but they’re on the side of good and have good intentions. I wish more people would make pods like this and listen to pods like this instead of listening to political, financial and health grifters. 🙏🏼

Tom and Cecil are the best!
I have been a listener for many years. Tom and Cecil are intelligent, compassionate and hilarious. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

If Jackass were a podcast for smart people
I’m a longtime listener. I appreciate their humanist perspective. Seriously though, they laugh just like Johnny Knoxville!

Great podcast
I jumped in just prior to the pandemic not knowing anything about these guys. Honestly, it took a few episodes to get into, but this quickly became my favorite podcast. I love their sense of humor and biting words for any nonsense they come across. I look forward to every new episode!

One of the originals
Been listening for a very long time and never miss an episode. People who complain about how much they laugh clearly cant appreciate joy.

Research…
Please research Dr. Peter McCullough. Really research … put your biases aside … and research through a medical lens vs. a political one. Please.

Love these guys!
Been listening to them since I was 15! 10/10 humorous news source for brightening up this dark and desperate timeline.

At last!
Finished! Listened to every! Single! Episode! Had I known penance for being a mormon would be so…..unspeakable, I’d have chosen door # 2 or 3 instead. But now it’s done, I can move on….What?…speak up…. No!….More episodes? Every week? Never be finished??!! NOOOOOOOO!…… Seriously, from a 69 year old former Morbot, thanks for what you do. Since “leaving the faith” over 10 years ago, I’ve worked hard at getting the brain to learn critical thinking. You, Tom and Cecil, are helping me do that every time I listen to your irreverent and angry rants about whatever makes you mad. Strangely, the same topics seem to make me mad as well. Again, thank you. With greatest respect, Randy

I love this podcast

Binge-Worthy and Sanity-Saving
Over the past three months, I have suffered through the entirety of Cog. Diss's backlog. While I have to refrain from making "gloryhole" references in my daily life, this podcast has truly made me laugh consistently, while simultaneously angering me. I love the chemistry between Tom and Cecil, and the production value is beyond spectacular (thanks Cecil). I can't wait to hear your rants about the upcoming presidential debates! Update: I’m not sure when I wrote my original review, but I’ve been a loyal fan since day one. These two have kept me sane through grad school, a gameshow host presidency, and a pandemic. You really can’t get any better than that!

Cognative disadance
I’ve been listening to the podcast from the start. I am literally every single. I love you guys. I have to say I can’t stand the squeaky voice commercials

Ian’s ads
Listen just for Ian’s ads.

gloryhole
Tom and Cecil are wonderful. This on my weekly rotation of podcasts that I listen to without fail. I love that they don't shy away from difficult topics and I appreciate their points of view as more experienced atheists. This is absolutely one of the best atheist podcasts out there, hands down.

Best podcast ever. Best Adam and Eve ads ever.
Episode 572 has the best ad skit for Adam and ever i laughed for ever. This podcast has been my all time favorite alongside citation needed, the skepticrat, the scathing atheist, god awful movies and lastly D and D minus not as much but a little. These guys are smart and they haven’t lied about any news stories as far as I’m aware which some news sources will do. Thanks Tom and Cecil please keep up the good work I don’t want to live in a world with no new content from you guys!!!!

G-Hole
They never fail to make me laugh as well as get me fired up at the crazy world we live in. Cecil and Tom are awesome, have big hearts, and are never shy to make fun of garbage people!

Thank you
These guys helped me a lot when I realized I was an atheist. I went through this period where I wondered if there was any purpose to life. I also felt like there were no other atheists around to chat with. This show, along with a few others, really buoyed me. The show is absolutely hilarious. These guys are awesome.

Please contact this First Assembly of God , Gal
I would like to know exactly everything you believe as I am struggling in my faith. Thank you. Shantel

Stars and Stripes
An American classic.

Totally Excellent Show!
I love this podcast and I still agree with Eli Bosnick when he was on the show! Episode number 555 Fake Phone Number 👻

No choice
I’ve listened to this podcast for years, and loathed every minute of it. Long have I sat stone-faced as Tom and Cecil told jokes that didn’t land about subjects I consider off-limits while espousing political opinions contrary to my own. On a recent episode however they made a hilarious comment I completely agreed with about something I considered well-deserving of ridicule. Alas that leaves me no choice but to give them a five star review in response. May glory be thy whole, gentlemen.

Episode 548
I became the bad neighbor after an incident with the woman below me. In my apartment, the hardwood floors are extremely warped and our walls are paper thin. Most of us are single men and women, in our late 20s to early 30s. With that said, adult noises that are made, will be heard. One day, the neighbor underneath me complained to me about my adult activities and the sounds accompanied by them. I reply with “your sounds are just as loud and clear.” During her next rendezvous, one of her suitors had parked in my designated parking spot. As a physically disabled combat veteran, I found it quite irritating to find my parking spot used by a vehicle that is not familiar with the building. Eventually, her date exits the unit, we lock eyes and not a single word was made as they make my parking spot available to me. A week passes and we never speak about the incident. I never get an apology; whenever we pass in the hallway, I get a good old-fashioned scowl. For the next three years (until she left), I stomped around in my old combat boots as if they were house slippers, started a smoking habit out of spite, and was the host of several orgies in my unit. I would name more activities, but to tickle your imagination; for every holiday, there was a loud, room shaking event on top of her.

Another tried and true favorite
I left a similar review on the GAM podcast, but I’m here also to say that this podcast is the best! I’ve been listening for years and it’s just one of those podcasts I look forward to every week without fail. I love Tom & Cecil’s humor, and how you guys break down big topics, making them easy to understand and hilarious. This show is comforting and constant in a world that can be harsh and chaotic.

So sane, the insane is obvious
News, politics, and morality of the culture are such interesting topics Cecil and Tom have the best grasp of humor to fill their commentary with. I listen every week and even caught up on the catalogue. The history of what we have gone through really puts things into perspective. The things I care about as an atheist concerned about freedom of thought and religion and such issues are all covered in the scope of this show. I even have gained new incites into foundations Vulgarity for Charity and Modest Needs.
