A Podcast dedicated to the show This Is Us on NBC. Join hosts Mary and Blake as they discuss the previous week's episode, This Is Us news and spoilers, as much Listener Feedback as humanly possible, theories, and their favorite moments from the show.

Mary and Blake are the best. They are a wonderful, clearly loving couple who pull out some very interesting takes on the show that I never would have thought of on my own. They challenge me to view the show with a sharper eye and I few like it makes me connect with the show even more.  This podcast breaths new life into my “This is Us” viewing experience and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a This is Us podcast.

Perfection

I watch This is Us by myself - the family isn’t really in to it.  So I wait to watch the episodes until I know Mary and Blake have dropped their podcast!  They feel like friends that laugh and cry with me.  Thanks guys. (Love Outlander as well!)

Can’t wait to hear your take!
