It started out funny, and now I just want to uncover the mystery with you. This is such an intriguing listen. A nice reprieve from my typical podcast listen.

And I am already hooked!

I find it irresponsible you have released a podcast so funny. I’ve attached a doctor’s bill for sprayned ribs i got laughing. If you do not pay this invoice beofore the 30 march, i will have to involve my brother Tim. He has read every book by john grisham and has offered to take the case pro-se. Thanks. Jordan

I haven’t laughed so hard in a very long time.

Dear sir, I have been strongly considering going to acting school for while now, so I’m basically a actress. I faked lots a stomachaches to get out of school and have told many stories to polees ofisers to get out of tickets so the way I figure it I’ve been in more movies than most people. I think I would be much better as the voyse of Karen because we are basic the same person! she’s smart, tacky sharp as I’ve heard my Dad describe really smart people, she has such a way with words don’t you think, I’m very elquint too, that’s the new word I learned this week. Anyway, my best friend neighbor has a dog that was recently in a commercial and got paid $1000, so since there are 25 episodes you can mail me a check for $20,000 (since 1000 doesn’t go into 25 even) as soon as you get this.So that I will receive it next week. boy aren’t you glad I came across this cast of pods!?!? No need to thank me as long as you use me for any more stuf you do with Karen in it. Yours, Sabrina P.s. not like the teen wich or any age wich. I’m just a actress person.

The material (the letters) is humerous, but the rest is awful. The sound levels are not balanced- it goes from way too quiet to way too loud constantly. Including beeping out names (anf having the beeping sound be much louder than the speech) - it is uncomfortable to listen to - glad I’m not using headphones for this most of the time as that would be even worse The storytelling is incohetent- for example: in the first season, the host references things as if we are extremely familiar with them already, only to officially introduce them 2 episodes later. And in the second season, there And the host and pals are way to self-complimentary. Tooting his horn about how his poscast gets way more interaction than others out there that are not true crime . (Not the only genre with interactive audiences) And then goes on to brag about its enormous Facebook group (about 300 ppl). And the aftershow episodes are usually at least 20 minutes of introductions. Snore! And probably worst of all is that most (albeit not all) of the “research” involved was finding a few people on facebook and convincing themselves they got the right people, and taking everything at face value. I still have 2 episodes left so maybe eventually there will be evidence of something more substantial , but this was a huge letdown. Ps they even have an episde missing of the regular (non-aftershow) missing so if theeven worse quality of the aftershows bugs you but you don’t want to miss an episde, you’re out of luck.

I’m just now listening to Episode 2 and I love everything about this podcast but Tammy needs to CHILL. She is horrible - she’s dominating the conversation, interrupting everyone, keeps getting kicked off then rejoins as if they havent continued speaking while she fixes her tech issues. She’s rude and annoying.

dear josh, i trust you. you have four letters in your first name and 8 in your last, all even numbers. but i here you are a Virgo. i worry about you. i expecially worry about your worrying. so if you are worrying please let me know or not because i worry about you. Karen and Ellen sound like nice people and i wonder if you might have some Scorpio in your chart because you make fun of them which makes you kinda meanie. also maybe you don’t like cats because you did not have to talk about the broken tongue on the cat? it’s 3 years later and you probably don’t read your reviews but if you do or don’t read them then i hope you do. also i would like to buy the cat painting minus the cost of the broken tongue obviously because you know a cat needs their tongue. my boyfriend who thinks he will be a vet someday told me 3 really big reasons a cat needs a tongue. also he loves cats but you don’t so it’s only fair that you owe me the cat painting. sincerely yours...

Why is it so repetitive? Super loud commercials at the front, a blow up in the middle. A mess. The first half I just skip through to find the dialogue. I want my depot back

Speechless but definitely full of laughter 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

The background music is mixed too loudly. It competes with the dialog. Choosing background music with lyrics, especially well-known songs, is not the best choice- the brain wants to follow the familiar path, making it hard to focus on the story.

🤦🏼‍♀️ I can’t even 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️

Dear Josh, I’m sorry I mist the podcast when you first red it. Why didn’t you write me to let me no? Anyway, I loved it. So did my fish. They died laughing but they dyed happy. See sun 1 was funny. See sun 2 was good 2. The ending was the best with Hellena going to see Ellen and Karen thinking of Ellen on the beach. That made me happy. The Ellen phone call was the icing on the cake. Will you buy me some cake? That just made me hungry. Sinsearily, Paige

Josh Your podcast is so funnie! I found it after true crime BS. You rilly shouldn’t not use bid langwege in publick. I am the same ages of Karen and Ellen and find there requesting to be stoopid. Nobuddy is that dum. You owe me 5000 dollers becuz this makes me feel dum cause I’m that same age as they were wen they wrote thes. Karen owes me 22 and Ellen owes me 33 becuz it made me pee my pantz and they costed me 70.

I agree with others re: the horrible audio mixing, and the volume of the music when it's used as background music. Also, the order that the shows appear in the store is way out of order. I feel like I've spent more time looking for the next episode than I did listening to them.

Hi there, We are very late to this pidcast and fell like we should recive compesacion for missing it in 2017. Espshilly because our podcasts is in the same jurisdiction as yours is. We half to spend alot of time listening to catch up, whitch has taken time from our jobs. If we new about it sooner, we could have spent more time working then listening. If different podcasts are around at different times we are clearly owed for our time putting into this show and its sucesses. Please submit $8,325 into our Ko-fi account and we’ll call it even. @2girlsonabench 😂

I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats.

This podcast was incredible! It was a different story from anything else I have read or listened to. I highly suggest it and I am jealous of anyone who has this podcast ahead of them.

Listening to this podcast and the story it weaves has been the most delightful rabbit hole experience I’ve ever encountered. The twists and turns and hilarity kept me devouring new episodes as soon as they were uploaded. Each time you think you figure out the situation, new details pull the elusive plot from your grasp. Chose to listen to the after episode commentary or just the regular “letter episodes” alone- either way, following this story through has been simultaneously ridiculous and rewarding. Josh assembled the pieces of the Karen and Ellen story to unfold in a thoughtfully woven (crocheted?) manner. Enjoy!

A great show, from a fantastic supporter of podcasting. Love all that Josh does. If you like Podcast, please check him out and support other independent podcasters. Keep listening! #PodTester #PodernFamily #100Pods #PWLT #UnderDogPods ~Sam

Dear Josh, I am writing to you because I love listening to your show. I am a big fan because I listen to your show and that’s why I am a big fan. I have read other reviews from other people that have listened and reviewed your podcast, i think it is unfare how your other listeners get to take monies off of the cost of paying for listening to your podcast and I don’t. I think that is unfair, my boyfriend says that you are being unreasonable. So I am giving you a list of things I should be reimbursed for. Because I work in a place that is very loud I have to buy special ear plug headphones because it’s very loud. 25 dollhairs. To be able to listen to your podcast you should get me a new phone. I currently have an Red iPhone 7 but I would like the new iPhone X. I prefer the silver color.$1000. Lucky for you my work offers free WhyFi so you do not have to pay $60 a month for my unlimited data plan. Isn’t that lucky!! As I am very good at math you owe me $1002.50. I am looking forward you you sending me money. Yours, Abi

Dear Josh, I’m not going to not mention the fact that I don’t like how mean Mark has been in his letters. What would Mary Christ think? Before she died, (if she died, which isn’t what Catholics assume) Mary Christ was Jesus Christ’s mother, and Jesus Christ wanted everyone to be nice to each other. Anyway, I’m unbelievable that Mark wouldn’t even replace their vacumm. I mean, green slimy stuff is gross. It could’ve happened to anyone really. But it happened to Karen. Still, I’m glad you’re shearing these letters with the world. People should defiantly know all about the unjustice that Karen and Ellen experienced from Mark, who now owes them $20,000 with inflated and interest. Yours, Erin

Between the actual podcast and the Roomies group on FB, I can always count on someone making me smile on a daily basis. My life was merely a sad pile of unused fur wall covering until I started listening. You have sharpened my ability to argue my way out of anything by making absolutely zero sense as a distraction technique. I’m basically a mental ninja now. ❤️ you guys! Yours- MT

From the law offices of Bossy Hobbs 😉 You are hereby asked to continue this podcast at all costs. Failure to do so will result in ultimate sadness. As the law representative of a well known podcaster, you cannot break this agreement.

Wow! From now on, anytime a friend of mine says something ridiculously out there, I will ask them 'are sure your name isn't Karen' or respond, 'okay Ellen, I'll get right on that'. I gave 4 out of 5 starts due to the irritating audio issues. I have to take a minute to thank one of the reviewers on this list - RIP Cat Painting. Roxy, you had me rolling. Absolutely loved reading it.

I’m not sure why people think this podcast is so funny. The letters are clearly fictional and the voice actors are not good enough to carry the fiction.

Deer Josh: This is bye far the best podcast. I have had a terrible and tuft weak at werk. This was just the laugh I needed!! Thank you for all the giggles Yours, Keri

If you've read these reviews and find yourself wondering what everybody is talking about with the fish washing, avocados, and allegaters, there is only one way to find out what they're talking about because you'll never find out what they're talking about unless you listen to the show and find out what they're talking about. Yours, Somebody who knows what they're talking about!

To whom it may concern: I found your podcast recently and was so glad that I did, it is hilarious. It is so hilarious that I'm embarrassed to admit - I peed my pants from laughing so hard. I am a bit frustrated however. In your disclaimer intro you warn listeners that listening to the show may cause brain damage. But you failed to warn listeners that you could potentially pee your pants from laughter. If you had the appropriate warning in your disclaimer, I wouldn't have worn dry clean only pants while listening. I have enclosed a dry cleaning bill for one pair of pants at $19.99. That's only fair, and I would suggest you update your disclaimer for future episodes. Sincerely - M

Hello, I'm assuming this is Mark since I heard your name mentioned once in this podcast. I'd like you to know that listening to this has distracted me so much from doing my weekly reports that I was fired from my job. My dedication to lissening to this has cost me my career as an administraightive assistant. I kindly ask that you re-pay me for my profit losse as it is technically your fault I lost my job. I will need $2,000 by the end of this month to pay rent and an additional $500 for emotional disstress. Please respond as soon as possibble as I am needing to buy some fashionable socks for my toy poodle Angus. It's urgent. His socks are so out of stile. Sincerely, Film Roast

Had no idea what to expect when a friend told me to listen to K&E. First episode I thought - what is this? Second episode I was hooked and the first season was hysterical. Can't wait for season two. Josh has created a totally different, unique, hilarious podcast. Congratulations on being original!

Love this podcast. I've listen to all of the episodes more than once. I've also found new podcasts to listen to from the guests on the aftershows.

Dear Mr.A Itoons, I know you are busy with all the shows you have to put on. So if you can forward this to Mr.josh I would appreciate it. I just want him to know how great it is that you are showing people how tirranical and unreasonable landlords can be. Especially when dealing with two very independent women.

Because of this podcast, I peed my pants laughing. My underwear + jeans cost about $45. And the cost of doing laundry is about $4. So, $45+4 is $49, but since I threw other cloths in that laundry, let's split the difference and you can owe me $50. From the font on the cover art, I'll assume you're a Virgo, and I'm glad you went with curly letters and not some gutter font. Looking forward to season 2! Not to be too much of an allegator, but I allege it'll be terrifical! Yours, Emily, The Story Behind

Well. I laughed. And well I could have laughed more but that would cause people to watch me. And when people watch people then we get confused on who is watching who and I really don't have time for that because I have to watch who I'm watching and not who is watching me watch them. Ya know? But really this podcast got me thinking about people just like me who like people but have to really watch what I say cause I don't want to look stupid ya know?

Give this podcast a listen! A perfect combination of humor and mystery.

I'm unreasonably obsessed with this awesome show!!!

Dear Josh, I only jus found out bout this podcast thing a weak or something ago so as you can sea, Ive had a lot of catching up too do! My Mother told me wat a podcast was and how to lisen she's really good at that kind of thing. Anyway, I thank im caugt up now. And jus between you an me one thymes I laughed so hard I pead a little! Isnt that some thing?? Well, im sure you understand I realy won't ewe too keep that is a secret between meme an ewe because peaing you're pants is sorta embarrassed. So thats hour secret accept I did tale my Mother. Because you no. Mothers. Well, I just don't wont the hole world noing that that happened. Can you IMAGINE? Well I got a little bit off the real thing I am righting about whitch is that when I lissened two that first couple or few episodics, the man whoo reeds the Mark letters made me be remembering or reminded or whatever about that book the lady who tought me scool at home because Mother said she didnt won't me too go to scool with commentators read too me when I was small. Ewe no the one?? The one by Dr. Zeuss about the eggs and the ham? Every time that guy said I will not or I want over and over I thought about that book and that seams exactly what the thing one or too in that book who won't eat the eggs or the ham any wear or hear or their??? What he wood sound like?? Now its pretty stuck in my brain josh. I keep trying to stretch it out but its steel their!! Well, I'm not mad or any thing that ewe weren't more careful in choosing the reeder. It is pretty funny. And it could happen two any one. Plus I dew like that book, I can reed it very good! Oh, bye the way. Is that guy really a Queen? Can they do that? Well, anyway, my favorite Queen is Elizabeth the old one. Not the one who is old write now butt the one who lived many decade centeries ago an was a red haired basterd. She was a true exemplar off what a strong woman should bee. Maybe I can bee like thet one day accept I don't want to have to have red haur or be a basterd. Anyway, I thank that's all fur now. Good Karma Good Karma fur all tha future of you're work!!! Yours, Cindy

So happy I decided to listen to this podcast!

I am going to do a huge favor for you and I won't not list the cat painting to the list of things I listed on the list that you owe me. Unstead, I've decided that I'm going to leave 5 stars here for you- that's 'sinko' in lots of places in foreign. In return, I will be willing to do-overnegotiate the germs of our agreements. Firstly, I will not charge you for the cat painting, and first-and-a-halfly you don't have to go to the dump and get it back for me. We will call it a drawing. Secondly, which is technically thirdly because I already listed two -ly's, but I'm anti-samantics. And thirdly kinda fourthly, but not, so thirdly, I've re-calculatored the fair market interest (not the kind of market where you buy stuff, but the fair one) and since you seem so interested in interest, I have become interesting as well. Since we now live in jurisdictions hundreds of miles, even hundreds of kilowatts, as those French people like to say, my interests plus your interests makes interesting things. That means double and more is always better than less, except for maybe my bills and my weight, but I digest. Anyway, 34.4% for my jurisdiction plus 34.4% for your jurisdiction is fair for both of us to owe me. And if you don't pay me, then you can go ahead and get those papers from the court- one set for me to sue you and one for me to sue me. For 5 stars, that's a way better deal than anything ever, except a moving eyes cat painting.

Dear Josh, I love listening to yur show. I feel like I could be friends with Karen and Ellen. I would like to tell you though that maybe you shouldn't discuss washing fish on your show. I took your advice and washed my fish and would you believe it but they died. So I would like it if you would please by me some new ones since it was your idea for me to do this in the first place. Even though it really culd have happened to anyone. Irregardless, keep up youre good workes. Luv, Annta

Whoever chose the voices that read the letters for each person is a genius!!! Perfection!!! 😂😂😂😂😂

So fun to listen to...

Never mind Nightvale this be fun

This podcast brings joy and laughter until tears with every episode. The voice actors who read the letters are superb. The aftershows are like hanging out with friends chatting (and drinking if you want). Your life needs this podcast!

Dear Josh, I have listene to your podcast for a couple days now, and I really like it! But my phones spekers aren't loud enough. I think I need another phone so I have one for each ear! Will you pay for a new phone for me? Verizon has them on sales for $150 dollars but an upgraded one for $250. I would like the upgraded one! Great podcast! Thanks, Tanner

Dear Josh, I had a gauzy vision for how this podcast would sound but, it doesn't seem as dreamy as my trip to the Eyeful Tower. But, polling my friends said 76.2% of my friends agree with me that these letters are better than the new wall treatments I learned in college. As an Aries, I think it's important what my guru says. And, you know what that means! P.S. I'm still waiting on the dry socks that I told you I needed when I got my socks wet from the wet water on the floor. I'll trade you an oak framed medicine cabinet for? What do you think? <3

Dear Josh, I wanted to tell you that I'm really considering changing my major and school, isn't that great?!? This podcast is hilarious and makes me feel sooo much better after dealing with stupid people at my school all day! But I feel I need to warn you, I'm REALLY having a hard time with the fact that there aren't any-more of these to listen to currently. My boyfriend ( who's seriously considering becoming a psychologist) said I am probably experiencing "de-stressed" because you aren't being responsible with your "predict.. preduct.... pro... making more podcasts and that I could sue you for the "de-stressed" you are causing me. I REALLY like you so I figured instead of suing you, we can just come to an agreement. Here are the list of things I'll need you to pay for. 1. New iPhone$ 580. When I saw there were no more episodes, I threw my phone against the wall and it broke. If you made more episodes before I ran out this wouldn't have happened, you owe me a new phone! 2. New ear buds -$35. The last episode had really low ending music and I thought my ear buds were broken and took them apart to try to fix this! GUESS WHAT?!? they weren't broken, it was just your song, so I totally didn't need to take them apart! I'm sure you will agree this is your responsibility! I would prefer hot pink with bling please! If you feel Funny buying pink just tell everyone it's for your listener! They will respect you for doing the right thing! 3. A new job or $5700 a month- I got caught listening to your show at work, and was fired. To be "faired" my boyfriend said this was false termination because I didn't hear their numerous warnings telling me to increase productivity, and I totally would have heard them had I not been listening to you. I think we can both agree you are liable. My boyfriend says you're liable and remember he's REALLY smart! He might even get into a not "tuff" grad school! I hope you make more episodes! I don't want to have to keep adding to your charges! Since I like you so much I'll just agree to split the costs in the middle, plus 30% interest! Yours, psychgirl Ps. I was pretty sure Mark owed The girls for the vac-ummm, so I tested sucking up gross stuff out my fridge and I broke my vac-ummmm. Can you buy me a new one please? THANKS!!

I found this podcast through Wine & Crime and this has been the best recommendation I've ever been given. I work as a legal assistant and I can tell you that it's astounding how dumb people can be.

I find this podcast very uplifting and has some unique qualities that I find very unique. I am pretty sure I think that the girls that write these letters to there very mean landlord have some very important things to point out and I am very happy to see that a podcast like this shows how mean landlords can be. I feel sad for them because what they are asking is very important and I feel the landlord is not very nice to them. I can really realate to the people this podcast is about and feel a lot of sympathy to them. I deal with a mean landlord to and I am glad I am not the only one! my landlord refuses to pay for my $60 data on my mobile phone! Even Starbucks offers free internet! I also am learning a lot.. my vacume cleaner broke last week and I learned that it was because I used in in my frigerator. I never would have known that! I am hoping that I will learn a better way later on on the show. Last but least, the host isn't a Scorpio! you know what that means.....
