Lily roasting Toast because she knows he won’t roast her back meanly because he’s in front of a kpop star

Lily matching her energy and acting as bridge for KPop knowledge was great. Wondering how Toast would‘ve handled it alone.

[@dylansharma3813]

Great combo, but definitely got annoying when lily kept cutting her off

[@hermelitabonjibod6517]

I feel like toast can handle it well alone, and lily with him have a nice synergy too

am i missing something? i cant see the annoying parts....is it in the last quarter of the vid? cuz i stopped there

[@liiiinder]

if bridging means constantly repeating "oh thats cool" you're completely right

[@messysnapper]

As someone who does not dabble into the world of K-pop, this is an insightful and entertaining episode of the padcost. I hope that one day we'll get a Brodin as a guest, a man of enigmatic qualities. Pretty cool to see enthusiasm that Lily has, it's infectious.

[@wongcayven9893]

Finally! Someone who acknowledged that this is a padcost. Ever since ep3 I've been trying to find other people who noticed it

[@richmanmeto8176]

Toast commented about his abilities as a host but honestly, his being genuine and being himself is what draws the most out of these interactions. I agree that it's less smooth when they have guests outside the friend group, but it's TOAST. I just can't complain. BTW ALEXA is really COOL; it great discovering her out here.

[@Ryan-to1pr]

i bet alexa came to the podcast just because she knew toast was hosting it

[@butterbeef8504]

I feel like if it was just toast and Alexa the video would have been more "structured"/"focused" and overall improved the podcast.

[@AbsurdAsparagus]

@@butterbeef8504 i disagree, i feel like toasts structure to the podcast is good but overall very been there done that, it desperately needs the energy of some one like lily in it every once in a while.

[@azusayoichi3248]

@@AbsurdAsparagus i think poki would have been much better for that than lily. it felt like lily didn't really add anything meaningful to the podcast other than saying "oh that's cool" . this episode was kinda lacking content wise compared to the previous ones.

[@lila9349]

@@AbsurdAsparagus I do think it would be easier on toast to have a second person there when it comes to interviewing ppl outside the circle. Lily just need to stop saying "it's soo cool!" non stop XD

[@sean-de2pl]

This was such a big step for toast and even lily in terms of talking to a person they presumably don’t know very well on the podcast, they will only get better at talking to new guests, i cant wait for them to have more interesting people like Alexa on the show 😌

[@Faith-yh7xd]

I was not expecting the Shang-Chi segment of the podcast to still live on

Pretty cool to see Alexa here. I've listened to many of her podcasts, I miss "How Did I Get Here?", which to be fair was Jae's podcast, but it was infinitely better when they could bounce off each other.

[@victorbarros2906]

Even though this episode was veeery cool (specially bringing people outside the offtv circle), I really thought the pace was kinda different. Not that it is a bad thing, but having 1 on 1 conversations as mentioned in episode 1, seems more fluid, specially for toast`s style of enterviewing. Great work as always!

[@punya3597]

I think it worked for this particular episode, because toast didn't seem to have much knowledge about kpop. So it helped to have lily bridge in that gap otherwise the 1 on 1 convos are great!!
