A Gift
Every episode feels like a gift! The amount of research, commitment, and insight. Omg, keeping me up at night the more I know about these topics but I’m thankful for it.
Thanks Olivia and Brooke!

Funny AND Unsettling!!
I started listening to this podcast when I started a job as a delivery driver and let me tell you, it makes hours on the job go by quick! I had to lay off the binge listening because it was keeping me up at night, but a few episodes a week is perfect for me. Brooke and Olivia look at their topics from so many different angles. Their stories are incredibly well researched and I feel smarter having listened! They’ve got episodes for every mood— when you want to laugh, cry, rage, be scared, whatever! It’s always a good time.

Okay-ish
I will start out with I have only listened to one episode. There could be better episodes that I just haven’t heard. I think more time needs to be spent on editing & planning. It was very hard to follow what was going on. Also please stop saying “Like” & “Bro” so much. At one point I tried to count the number of times you said like & had to stop. It was said 15 times in the span of 30 seconds. Also the whole episode I listened to you complained about how white the peoples names were in the movie.. they were some white names.. but when your names are Brooke & Olivia I don’t think you can comment.. cause those are also some white names.. it was ok but it could be better.

Wide Awake
Things That Keep Me Up At Night is a show focused on the general terrifying nature of reality with a bit of the macabre thrown in for good measure. It offers up laughs and genuine dread. The hosts are both informative and easy to listen to. Give them a listen and subscribe now!

Hopelessly addicted
I started listing to this podcast on accident and now hopelessly addicted. I think every time my roommate is in the same room as me I give a synopsis of whatever episode I listened to. They make it easier to take in information on tough subjects and they do great work (and they’re funny)! But seriously this is my new favorite podcast.

Congrats and suggestions
Love this podcast! I love the quality of the research (hell yaaas primary sources) as well as the righteous anger. The horrors will def keep you up at night, but the knowledge is just so good.
I suggest you guys might want to look into all the ‘robber barons,’ or basically all the giants of industries of the turn of the last century be they Edison, Ford, Rothschild, Bell, Rockefeller etc. because they were superbly evil.
Mostly, though, I’d suggest covering psychics. They will keep you up ALL THE NIGHTS.

Good Stuff Good Stuff
I'm mentioned in some of the episodes, so you can tell this is a completely unbiased review.

might have to tough it out
ok, i have over 160 podcasts on my ipod so i cycle through about 8-10 pods everyday. these ladies were a nice surprise because it's not just the same thing everyone else is doing. the bone i have to pick is with the fact that i love how smart olivia is, she's educated but please stop moaning and groaning everytime brooke says something. it really detracts from the content and breaks the momentum of the story. i really hope not all the episodes are going to be like that, it was #29 about the oil spill. i found it hard to stay attentive to brooke when olivia was interjecting random grunting and groaning noises. please stop. or cut back. maybe use your words to react instead of random noises.

Young folks. Ate up folks.
If you’re a young person who is freaked out about the state of things, you can relate to these gals. If you’re not, it’s great insight. I see a lot of myself in these gals (including rolling my eyes at intense stubbornness even when they’re wrong, but smiling at their passion). Give it a whirl.

I don’t sleep anymore and I’m okay with that
I listen to a lot of podcasts. I have a problem and I’m okay with that. This is one of the best researched and enthralling podcast I’ve ever listened too. The girls are hilarious, relatable, and educated. I’ve told everyone I know about this podcast. Also I love that I tweet them and they respond... I only fan girled a little bit.

Top notch podcast
Great podcast! Love the dark humor, and wanting to drink a bottle of wine to myself each episode after learning more disturbing things that have occurred in this crazy world.

Great podcast!
I just listened to episode 10 about the 1918 flu and it was really good! Well-researched, informative, and the hosts interactions with each other kept it fun. The sound quality was good too.
Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo
Fun and informative!
Got drunk and recapped the influenza episode to everyone who would listen to me. Clearly informative.

Every. Day.
One of my daily listens! I can’t stress enough how I listen to them on a DAILY BASIS. It’s part of my morning routine to listen to them. Great information each time I listen every day. At least one episode. Even if it’s a repeating episode I listen to one a day at least. Okay let me run through my schedule this week. Monday: listen to podcast, go to work, sleep. Tuesday: laundry, listen to podcast. Wednesday: listen to podcast. Thursday: see Wednesday. Friday: work out while listening to podcast. Saturday/Sunday: lay in bed with podcasts on repeat. If the sun were to burn out tomorrow, I wouldn’t notice as long as this podcast was available for me to listen to. It’s when I can’t listen to this podcast that my final breathe will leave my body.

Clever, funny, & a little dark
My fav new series. It's very informative & funny. The hosts find humor in almost anything without being cringy or insensitive.

What About The Children!!!!
I have enjoyed the first seven episodes of this podcast series!
Olivia, Brooke and Brienna have structured a system that surprises two of them on each podcast. The third partner is to research and present a fresh topic that of course, would keep them up at night. They play off each other extremely well and leave no stone unturned when it comes to their opinions on each topic. The show is well spoken, witty and informative.
Explicit language is found throughout their takes which sometimes makes the narrative quite funny!
Keep it up ladies!! Can’t wait for the next one!

P.S. for those of you who remember SNL’s skit; “NPR’s Delicious Dish”, these three ladies take it one step further!
Deuces!

A surprisingly positive podcast about surprisingly depressing things
A surprisingly positive podcast about surprisingly depressing things. Will keep you up at night, but at least they have nice nuggets of positivity and understanding that might just give you a little hope in these dark times. Very funny too, which is a nice big plus on my book.
CravingCypress
hilarious.
this podcast is super informative but also incredibly funny. the rapport between brie, brooke, and olivia clearly shows their friendship and makes for a very entertaining listen, but you're also learning about various subjects and they clearly do very good research about their subjects which makes the podcasts incredibly interesting.

Amazing
This is the first time I’ve been able to be at full attention to every single word being spoken, and been able to feel truly informed, fully responsive, and understand everything that is being discussed. I can sit and listen for 2 hours and feel involved in every way. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to be informed, or honestly just learn something new that they’ve never heard about before. Really great discussions, thorough, and great topics overall.
