    President Elgort
    I’m late to this party so I just started listening from the beginning. I’m a mail carrier and I have been laughing out loud all over town. Just heard the president Elgort bit and peed my pants laughing, had to stop and lean against a house until I could stand up straight. If you want a podcast that will make you laugh until your back hurts, well this is it! Can’t wait to find out how the toilet hurt Anna’s finger!
  • CatalpaJ
    Say Less
    Love the show, love the vibes, love the recent string of guests, but I have to say Jason’s interruptions always throw me off, usually feel at least a little disrespectful, and sometimes have the power to derail whole episodes.
  • jenboo13
    Great all year but especially for spooky season!
    The short story and The Raven are just what we need this October
  • hbamm718
    I keep thinking about
    Andrew’s impression of Truman Capote in Mortal Combat. It’s so important to me.
  • alanamarymm
    The episode from 5/28/24 has me crying
    I laughed so hard I got the hiccups. The background laughs kill me every time. I love this podcast so much.
  • Outsidebones
    Great Giggling Ghosts !!!!
    … it’s good
  • itsdavie
    Hey
    Hey
  • Lynnjacy
    My fav
    For folks with religious trauma who are maybe a little gay & like scary stories told in a funny, instead of scary way.
  • Glumpdrop
    For NP’s
    Nothing makes me happier than “this podcast is a nurse practitioner”. Yes! Me too!
  • magz676
    The perfect chatty podcast
    This is my go-to feel-good podcast whenever I have the blues. I’ve listened to all the episodes dozens of times. It’s like being in a room chatting with your best friends. It’s the perfect mix of spookies and funnies.
  • Dragonsbespooky
    Why is this so good!?!
    It’s silly and chatty and oh so charming. I could listen for hours, and sometimes I do!
  • ybwarrior2006
    The doll the size of a man
    Can’t begin to say how happy I was to hear that you guys started up again with this podcast. Started listening from the beginning. Have to say very spoooooooooky to listen to a podcast prior to 2020. So much hope, so many plans for the new year. Kept on saying “oh no! They don’t know what’s about to happen” Please don’t leave us again 😍
  • It’s me ok‽
    Sweeeeet!
    I cannot say how happy I am that this podcast is back. I had come to terms with it ending, if coming to terms means re-listening to old episodes every time I need something comforting to listen to, but then there were new episodes!! We are not worthy. Thanks Anna and Andrew! You were missed, by me and many others! I adore the funny-spooky-sweet that you give us!
  • Rojo Torrence
    Please keep bringing us more!
    I want to listen to these sweet peas every week.
  • LeonChestnut
    They’re Back!
    I just came to the pod’s page to start listening again from the beginning and much to my surprise I saw new episodes! I am so happy Anna and Andrew are making new episodes, because I love them so much!
  • Pins a plenty
    Overjoyed!
    it’s always an unexpected treat when one of your top podcasts comes back from the dead (ooh, spooky). I couldn’t be any happier that SSTTOTP is back! And with a new dog, no less?! Wow wow wow.
  • Emily/Elsa
    beloved spookies!
    So glad Anna and Andrew are back with their cozy spooky sillies! It’s lovely to hear their comfy scares and sweet voices again.
  • stabby fourvel
    Yayyyy
    I’m so glad you’re back and talking about mummies again! You two have the most wonderful, sweet chemistry while also giving me very hearty laughter!
  • The original jayoshi
    They're back bae-beeee
    So happy you guys are back. Love the pod, the wild casting, every two male characters that are gay, how yall really do look like that, the talking for 10 minutes until you get to the story, not being all that spooky, and of course the way you guys make me laugh. <3
  • Satans part-time secretary
    Ma’am!?
    Soooo happy to see my spooky Mom and Dad return from the store with new a**es to spook right off! Loving the pod like I always have from the beginning.
  • robbibi121
    Please keep this show going!!
    Or if you can do a different show cuz you’re sick of the whole scary thing then do that but WE NEED YOU TWO TOGETHER YOU ARE GOLD.
  • PRKlover593
    My god, oh how I missed this pod
    I literally melted into a puddle the second I heard that familiar banter…I’ve missed this podcast so much. Thankful for Anna and Andrew for coming back for a few episodes!
  • rnpm888
    Y’all better be back for real
    I looooove these two and seriously hope they’re back to stay! I missed this podcast so much! So good! Best hysterical banter paired with scary stories from two actually funny friends. Who could ask for more!? Stick around and keep recording!
  • lmk54321
    So exciting!
    One of my favorite podcasts. I’m so glad they’re back for some Halloween episodes!
  • Magpiechat99
    One of my favorites!
    The banter and truly spooky tales are so fun. Laughing out loud with every episode!
  • Michael Rydzinski
    Ohmygod new ep?!
    NEW EPISODE?!? Guys - I was entranced while on my lonely walks during the fall and winter in central Minnesota via 2020 - Hey, hearing your voices together again is like…mind bogglingly comforting and cozy. You two are then best cozy horror tellers, man. Your podcast just bleeds COZY. Love you both. Thank you for a surprise update! Michael from MN
  • FairyFiles
    A true favorite
    I’ve listened to this entire podcast several times over. It’s chatty, funny, and cute with a fun spooky season overtone. I love these two and would listen to them talk about stuffing pillows: it would still be funny. 😆
  • Moramber
    Get out!
    I love listening to this spooky-ish banter between these pals. More please 👻👻👻👻👻🧌💀👁️
  • Hola Carmitoooooo
    best birthday ever!
    woke up on my birthday (today) wondering what the day would bring. never in my wildest dreams did I think it would be this. I’m SO happy. thank you for the gift!!!
  • Mvy6191
    You’re Back …….
    Spooky spooky spooky! I loved this podcast for so long! I would listen each week and would constantly call my sister and tell her about “ma’am” and “getting out”. I am so happy you are back! Please stay. My spooky heart needs it
  • Sporkcicle
    New episodes wh-WHAT???
    I just listened to your two minute teaser for the new eps about to drop and I realized how much I’ve missed your voices!! This is the best spooky season surprise EVERRRRRRRR
  • Day from Los Angeles
    I loved this podcast :( Still hoping they come back!
    I can’t help but revisit this podcast because it is definitely my favorite! I laugh so hard with these two! They literally say what’s on my mind and make me laugh so hard that I can’t help but share! I really hope they come back and make more !
  • DavidJosephMoody
    I found my best friends
    I needn’t say more. But now I will. It wierds me out when the commercials come on. It makes sense that there would be commercials, from a strictly cynical point of view, and also I kind of dislike myself for fast-forwarding through the commercials but also not, because many someones including the hosts are making me fast forward through commercials. What else am I supposed to do with them. Listen: It’s a good show.
  • Mykindanormal
    Come back
    Be here! I miss this so much. Best pod ever.
  • sammy malone
    Come back!
    Please come back. Thank you!
  • PC2021md
    My favorite podcast!
    I miss it so much!!
  • MotherOfAbbyCat123
    Literally the best
    If you like spooky things and have a sense of humor look no further. I am beyond sad that this podcast is over, I just want to hear Anna and Andrew talk to each other all day for the rest of my life 🤣 Also, Lady Bird is an American treasure IYKYK
  • Chel_mar_11
    11 out of 10!
    The greatest podcast ever made.
  • DeeDeeBaii21
    They Talk to much at the beginning
    I love your show . But you guys are starting to talk to much . No disrespect . Just my opinion
  • rainbowxcurls
    Favorite Chatty Podcast!
    I’ve been working my way through this series from the beginning and I feel like I’m part of the friendship at this point! Andrew reading ep.162 clinkety clink was AMAZING. I was like Anna and always skimmed over the nonsense words when I was reading it to myself, hearing it out loud spooked my pants off! 😂 so sad to know that eventually I’ll run out of episodes but I’m enjoying the journey.
  • halfmm
    My favorite hoooor podcast
    I’m so sad that the pod is ending! I have really been enjoying the direction the pod has been going as y’all have been running out of Steven gamill stories, with the increased focus on urban legends and listener submitted stories. Gotta respect y’all knowing when you want to end your project though.
  • Bumm3r479
    Can’t stop listening
    Updating today 12/18/21 I am writing here because you said you have a pile of emails that need to be read and because I am trusting the dark entities of the internet to work their magic. I just want to say how sad I am to learn that you guys are ending the podcast 😭😭😭😭 I was driving when I heard the news and I almost become a scary story myself yelling Noooooo!!!! just like a damned banshee would do. I WANT TO CRY!!! You guys have made me company and have made me LOL endless of times. I obviously don’t know you personally but I feel like we are three souls connected through radio waves. Please contact me! I am willing to help you keep the podcast alive by reading your emails and keep the podcast for the rest of us who love hearing your chatting. What’s the job’s name/description? I will do it for you!! No strings attached and from the scary bottom of my spooky heart. From your gentle listener min99frey who is on gmail. PLEASE reach out to me. I’ll do it for the love of god and of the podcast, and of you guys. I’m serious. Let’s the “horror” (pronounced in my head as only you can do it) continue. Finding this podcast has been one of the best accidents in my life. I promise I’m not a psycho person. I am a middle age mom whose kids are starting to find their own way in life and my job as a preschool teacher is not enough excitement. If this is my middle age crisis’ fix so be it. Let’s chat.

    Scary Stories to Listen to in the Car
    I love this podcast! I’m a huge fan of scary stories and on long road trips (I travel 9 hours between to houses seasonally) this podcast is the best to listen to. I drive through a lot of mountains, mostly at night. So as you can imagine it puts me on edge to listen to scary stories too much… Even though I love them. This podcast however is the perfect solution to that! Anna and Andrew are like passenger’s in my car, telling me scary stories and reminiscing about their past along the way. The way that they balance the story with their own hilarious comments is enough to keep my horror at the actual stories at bay, and all the while I feel like I’m not completely alone for 9 straight hours lol. I love this podcast, I love Anna and Andrew and their amazing chemistry, and this podcast makes me so reminiscent of my childhood it is amazing. Everyone should give this podcast a shot!

    Bride of a much older very rich man
    I just cackled so loud my dog had to come check on me. Andrew and Anna are amazing. I’m so sad the pod is ending 😭
  • imaginary_girI
    This podcast scared my pants ON
    Oh how I love to listen to these two delightful people talk, whether it’s about ghosts, gays, or even greb. I love all things spooky and all things nostalgic, and this is a perfect mix of the two. This quickly became one of my faves and I frequently can’t stop myself from binge listening while I fold laundry for my much older husband. 10 million stars.
  • Batchface
    Best Hoooor podcast
    I just started listening and I love the conversations that happen in between the stories. The episode with Paul F Tompkins and the Cat InThe Shopping bag are my favorites right now but really all of them are amazing.
  • the ghost of amelia bedelia
    Perfect Combo of Humor and Haunts
    I’ve only recently started listening to this podcast, but I’m obsessed! I am a huge horror buff, but when I’m alone I get so paranoid I can’t sleep. Anna and Andrew’s cheerful banter helps to temper the scare-factor of spooky tales, fictional or otherwise. Although some folks complain about their tangential chatting, I personally love hearing their stories. As someone who’s been especially isolated during this pandemic, this podcast feels like a warm hug. GET OUT!
  • GrebChris
    I feel seen! My spooky saviors.
    I love this podcast so much & could not have survived the past year without it. As cheesy as it sounds, Anna & Andrew feel like friends. Granted, the most incredibly clever & hilarious friends that you could wish for.
  • Ohyouhavetobekiddingme
    Can’t listen
    Found this podcast just recently and really enjoyed the stories and the hosts are hilarious. However, I had to stop listening. The Forever Dog “jingle” that plays over and over during the podcast is the reason. I have suffered from tinnitus for 14 years and that sound is unbearable for me to listen to, and I’m unable to enjoy the podcast because of it. I don’t know if others feel the same way, but that noise is annoying a f.

    Chuckles & Chills while I grocery shop
    Love this podcast. It’s my go-to companion for all my chores, particularly grocery shopping. I can’t tell you how often I’ve been the weirdo in the meat aisle quietly chuckling to myself or nodding and muttering ‘yes that IS scary ’. My only gripe: Y’all owe me a throw-up consolation t shirt for that grasshopper story. The horrorrrrr.
