Please please please come back! We need this type of uplifting comedy in the world.

I love this podcast. Where are more episodes. They went on break and didn’t come back

book "Paul" and "Sasha" or whoever they really are from the podcast "Community News with Paul and Sasha". Like you they are smart, funny, quick, and full of heart. I love your show and theirs and would so much love to hear an episode of you all together talking about life...or about anything.

This show is just really funny, uplifting and sweet. The pep talks at the end of every episode are great, the host Josh Gondelman is great, guests are great, it’s all great. I hope that we can get new episodes sometime in the future.

Love the show. Please! New episodes!

Do you like nice people who are also genuinely funny? This is the game show podcast for you.

I suppose it’s over. BRB throwing away my phone

This show is such a treat. It’s nice to laugh out loud during a long commute. Thank you!!

The cornucopia of pep talks was delightful to listen to. Thanks for putting together this witty collection. It helped make the long drive home after Thanksgiving weekend a little more tolerable.

Witty and upbeat. I’ve been binge listening to all the previous episodes instead of reading the news.

If you haven’t been listening to this show (like I wasn’t until all too recently), then you’re missing out! This podcast is smart, joyful, and inspiring. You will not find a better way to spend 30 minutes at the end of your week. Josh is a ray of sunshine who brings out the very best in all of his guests.

I love this podcast so much. It’s hilariously funny and relentlessly positive without a hint of cheesiness. Host Josh Gondelman is absolutely delightful with a warm heart and a quick wit.

I just found this show a few weeks ago after first hearing Josh on Wait Wait... Don't Tell me and The Bugle. He's such a positive person and this show is fun and uplifting. I've been catching up on the old episodes and I've enjoyed them all.

the best podcast! just a complete delight every time. perfect for introverts who wish they could hang out with their funniest friends without feeling pressed to contribute and also for extroverts pained that they ever have to spend time alone (now you don’t! here are some friends making each other laugh). basically the ideal podcast for anyone who likes laughter and joy and good things. the only reason you wouldn’t like this is if you don’t like good things.

The best part of my week

Love the guests, love the point system, love the pep talks. It truly makes my day.

I used to commute more, therefore I listened to podcasts more, therefore I’ve had to cull to bare ‘essentials’ that I have to actually make time for rather than using to pass the time. ‘Make My Day’ has risen to the top of my list. I’ve listened to comedy podcasts for years…Josh is one of the fastest, funniest minds out there. And you can’t beat how unapologetically the show makes the guests, Josh and you feel a bit better for having joined them. Listening to serious podcasts has its place. So does doing something for you. Give it a shot.

Come for the laughs, stay for the pep talk 🤣 Such a great listen every week!!

Make My Day is Prozac in audio format. Josh Gondelman’s interview style and banter are the bubbles after every refreshing sip of top shelf seltzer water at the end of the day. A much needed beacon in the nightmare that was 2020, Make My Day has made me a GondelFAN for life (or at least until he sells out for seltzer ads).

Every time I ever heard Josh Gondelman appear on anything, I always found him entirely delightful. Finally, after appearing on an episode of Judge John Hodgeman, and finding he had a podcast of his own, and I've been hooked ever since. The genuine delight the host takes in the answers to his questions is infectious. He has an unerring instinct for guest selection, and can turn on a dime to follow an unexpected converstaional detour. His humor is smart, lightning fast, and always rendered with optimism and kindness that feels earnest without feeling hokey. Highly recommended

I found this pod through Josh being on Wait Wait & I’m so happy I did! I can’t get enough of his witty, silly humor & I've loved being introduced to some of the awesome guests I wasn’t familiar with. A perfect, much-needed lightness for my day!

Pleasant to the ear and mind

What a delight! Josh Gondelman is the most uplifting voice in podcast land. I checked this out cause Gondelman was my fave guest on “Lovett or Leave It”, “Wait Don’t Tell Me”, and “Judge John Hodgman”. His pod is positive, creative, quirky, always silly and sometimes quite sincere without ever being saccharine. Ep 43: “These Teeth Are From Me” literally made me sob with laughter. I listened to it 3 times and still cried every time. I might just listen to it again right now...

Creative in its concept with buoyant humor throughout, what a fun, refreshing listen this is with Josh and his fantastic guests. Every single episode is a true delight!

My only complaint about this otherwise exemplary show is the lack of warnings. Not only did I spit out water multiple times, but when I switched to coffee I choked on that. I also laughed too hard to breathe during several episodes. If I had had a warning going in, I would know to only listen to this podcast when there is another person nearby to save my life when I die from laughing too much. But at least I will die happy thanks to this show.

If you know anything about his standup, you know Josh Gondelman is hilarious. He has now developed and refined a unique podcast format...which is notable given all the podcasts out there! All that is to say, listen and subscribe! You will smile and laugh a lot!

I just recently found out about this podcast and I’m now hooked. Josh has the most contagious laugh and an amazing assortment of wonderful guests. I love the premise, it’s clever & fun and a little bit different each week. I think my favorite parts are the pep talks at the end. Of course we never know for sure if a host is really the person they are presenting as they perform, but Josh comes across as a very kind & genuine person, someone with whom you’d just love to spend some time. So I do. Every Tuesday. Thank you Josh. You really do Make My Day.

Throughout the pandemic I have gone to work at my actual workplace once a week. As the mother of two young boys that fight all the time and have been out of school this entire year, that day has become my favorite day of the week. The day gets even brighter because it is the day Make My Day Comes out and I listen to it while doing librarian things in an empty library. Josh and guests never fail to delight me and so because this review isn’t entirely about me, it’s just mostly about me, I had to award this podcast 5 points (stars). Seriously, I love it so much, doctors should prescribe it for ennui.

I get excited every Tuesday that I have a new Make My Day to listen to. If you’re looking for something to cheer you up for just a moment in this bleak world, please give it a lesson. Definitely worth your time!

This podcast is a mood booster. If you need respite from bleakness but are allergic to saccharine content, put this in your ears; feel your heart leap up; and notice your eyes do not roll.

This podcast is what we all need right now. Fun, funny, upbeat and sweet!

Josh finds light and quirk everywhere. Listening to this podcast makes me feel hopeful.

Such a great show!! I look forward to it each week!! The creativity and humor are both incredible!!

I could not be happier to have discovered not only this podcast, but also Josh himself! I enjoy every single episode and it never fails to improve my day, particularly the pep talks!

I discoveredJosh on “Wait Wait Don’t Tell”. He is my favorite panelist on the show and I am always super happy when he is on. This week I finally figured out that he had his own podcast and I’m loving it.

This is a funny show and Josh is a real sweetie pie

This show is a refreshing break from the weight of the world.

When I laugh really hard, my dog gets super excited and she starts doing zoomies. This show made me laugh hard enough that she zoomied headfirst into a door.

This is such a brilliant idea, and such wonderful execution. I absolutely love listening, the guests are consistently great, and Josh really has a talent for spotlighting some of the best parts of each of them.

By far the most delightful podcast I listen to. Both Josh and the guests exude warmth and a good natured humor. As if that wasn’t enough, it is also hilarious.

Josh Gondelman is a gosh darn delight and the sound of his laugh is a treat. The guests are always warm and funny. It’s just a terrific show to listen to when you want something light and soothing. I mean, do I really need a murder podcast keeping me up night? (The answer is “no”. No I do not.)

Man did I need a laugh today, and listening to the Tender Science Fiction episode I had 20. Day made.

Josh is very good. The show is very good. You will feel very good listening to Josh host this show.

Josh, I apologize to you and Apple for listening to the podcast on Spotify.

literally ALL OF THE COCAINE. ❤️

…the FCC is investigating it for scoring irregularities. Josh is a great and gracious host.

and endearing as a host. This podcast makes my day every week and regularly makes me laugh out loud

Love this show, especially in light of how messed up everything else is right now. Josh is positive and funny and picks great guests. I’m late to the party but I’m enjoying going back through everything I’ve missed. Thank you!

Just listened to my first episode (with guest Emily Y) and I can already tell this is going to find a home in my regular rotation. Five stars!

It's a goddamn delight.
