Kenny Olson, John Heidt and Dawn McClain deliver a slightly crabby but always fun take on news stories from the past week, focusing on all of the news that they didn’t get to cover on Garage Logic or the Jason & Alexis show.
The News from the Crabby Coffee Shop podcast is an absolute delight to listen to. From the infectious chemistry between hosts Dawn and Kenny, to the hilarious banter and storytelling, this show never fails to entertain. It has become a must-listen for me every week, as I eagerly anticipate each new episode.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the dynamic between Dawn and Kenny. Their back-and-forth banter is witty and charming, and they play off each other's humor effortlessly. I particularly enjoy Kenny's comedic timing and his ability to make me laugh out loud with his funny anecdotes and observations. Both hosts have a natural talent for storytelling, which makes each episode engaging from start to finish.
Another highlight of this podcast is the sense of community it fosters. The hosts make their listeners feel like they are part of a close-knit group sharing stories at their local coffee shop. It's refreshing to listen to a podcast that creates such a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interactive nature of the show is also commendable, as they often engage with their listeners through social media and incorporate their feedback into future episodes.
If there were any downside to this podcast, it would be that sometimes certain inside jokes or references may fly over the heads of new listeners who are unfamiliar with Dawn and Kenny's previous work on radio shows. However, this is a minor issue that doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the podcast.
In conclusion, The News from the Crabby Coffee Shop podcast is a gem in the world of comedy podcasts. With its delightful hosts, entertaining stories, and sense of community, it never fails to put a smile on my face. Whether you're looking for a good laugh or simply want to escape reality for a while, I highly recommend giving this podcast a listen - you won't be disappointed!
