Über diesen Titel

Welcome! We are Alyssa & Brody and we are so happy you’re here!

This is a podcast for the unhinged binge-watchers, chronic re-readers, and playlist addicts. We rewatch the shows we grew up on, the movies we quote in our sleep, the books that ruined us emotionally, and the songs we still scream in the car. Expect unfiltered opinions, chaotic tangents, many laughs, and possibly a few unhinged deep dives we absolutely did not plan.
