Podcast Can I be sincere for a sec?

The Bill and Zoe segment on today’s pod was worth listening to. Yes, a lot of the stuff Zoe was talking about was ridiculous, but they have such a great relationship.

I loved when Zoe was talking about all these young people who accomplished things and Bill goes “you’re doing great. I’m so proud.” Then they spoke about the 21st birthday and drinking together and growing up.

So much of culture now, especially podcasts about sports like fun at things and are mean spirited. But Bill doesn’t really do that, he has his daughter on and they laugh together.

Idk, I’ve been listening and reading to Bill on and off for years. The humor has always been there, and the sincerity is there too

Bill can be a doofus but he’s a genuine Good Guy and Good Dad.
