    Perfection.
    Bridger’s wit, charm and warm disdain for most things is the perfect combination. Each and every episode is a delight! Thank you for such a brilliant show. We’re lucky to have you.

    Solid Gold!
    Bridger is an amazing conversationalist, eloquent with his words, and absolutely hysterical! This podcast is akin to sitting down with your best friend to a coffee table brunch and spending hours enjoying great conversation and lots of laughs. My favorite part is how verklempt he sounds at the end as he begs us to move on with our days and our lives but is sure to tell us he loves us. Truly, this podcast is a treat! Give it a listen!

    Bridger is a gem.
    Hands down my favorite podcast. I wish there were more people like Bridger in the world. And I’m so sorry your dog passed, Bridger.

    Cookies!
    Petition for Bridger to make public his cookie guide to NYC 🙏🏻🙏🏻
  • Waghappy
    Love Bridger
    Not a show goes by that I don’t laugh out loud and scare the dog. Bridger has a way with a phrase that makes me laugh. Apparently he makes a lot of people laugh. Great podcast total holiday from life.
  • Katwrenmadsu
    Your podcast made me think something was wrong with my car
    Recording outside? Fabulous idea, lovely Birds, bugs, etc, the sounds of nature. Thinking something is wrong with my car due to these sounds? Perfect gift 10/10, brought some needed stress to my day about a potential financial pit. 5/5 stars this podcast is delightful
  • Shelley from GA
    A delight

  • gfvygnot
    Hilarious and good for my soul
    I can’t get enough of this podcast. I laugh out loud at every episode. It’s a wonderful refresh after I’ve consumed too much true crime.

    A collection of gentle conversations between a kind, former resident of Utah and a parade of charming visitors who bring him gifts.

    5 stars gifted
    Wow, just wow. Bridger invites you into his show with a warm hug. But don't get too comfy the show can go awry with the wrong gift. Love the show, love the man!
  • Casually Out Of Control
    All Time Fave
    Bridger is so delightful! His voice sounds like Christmas, which is fitting given the name of the pod. I look forward to every episode and every slightly manic white glove gift demonstration.
  • AmyTheG
    I live for new episodes!
    Bridger is hands down the best host in podcasting. This show has me laughing out loud on a regular basis. Bridger is super relatable and as a Listener, I feel like he is an old friend. The show’s format is perfect and moves along at a great pace, although with some guests the chemistry is so great I could listen for hours. This show is the gift that keeps on giving.
  • Juniper Brown
    Over the moon about it
    Love Bridger and his humor, but is this a comedy podcast or a covid vaccine podcast? 🤤 Hint: it’s actually a podcast about a young boy and his mother 5 stars
  • lmk54321
    Nice lighthearted break from the world
    I really enjoy this podcast even though I don’t always agree with Bridger’s hot takes. I mean small plates are a treasure. The 5 star rating is because I can’t thank him enough for articulating the reason Cards Against Humanity is the worst and for ending every episode exactly how I awkwardly end every phone call I’ve ever been on.
  • RitaManeata
    Truly a Gift!
    After a recent severe episode with anxiety, I’ve realised I can’t listen to true crime podcasts all of the time. I have been winding my way through a series of comedy podcasts to keep the anxious thoughts at bay. Since I’m already an MFM and Buried Bones listener, I Said No Gifts! was a logical choice. I have immediately fallen in love with Bridger and treasure each episode. I think the best part is when the guest gives him a gift that they are truly passionate about and we, as the listener, get to learn about an interest we may not have been aware of. Don’t think I won’t start collecting sodas and too hats. Thank you Exactly Right and Bridger for creating this work!

  • AuntyRaff
    What an absolute delight
    I cannot get enough
  • SeizeThePlight
    What an absolutely splendid white person!
    So the Mormon church has a billion-dollar database of all our genetic history! Well I say if that’s what they want for giving us Bridger Winegar, it was a worthwhile trade 😌
  • senjalovespods
    Give it a listen
    Simply the best host and good laughs

    GIFT
    Much like the game Gift or a Curse, this is not subjective. It is objective FACT that this podcast is 5/5 stars.

  • eebsiee
    Impeccable
    Each week I find myself waiting with bated breath to listen to the latest episode of I Said No Gifts. The host, Bridger Winegar, is constantly leaving the listener wondering about the leak in his home, his dental work, or more recently, the happenings surrounding jury duty. If any of these enthralling topics are screaming your name, what are you waiting for? Give I Said No Gifts a listen!
  • slamminsammydddelanty
    Yes
    Rodger is a gift. I meant to write Bridger
  • betscgee
    Where have you been all my life?
    Bridger, Bridger, Bridger where shall I begin? Ooh that's two questions in a row. Sign of overwhelm. I think my daughter suggested ISNG a long time ago and I glanced but did not hit play. Then my app started playing a strange medley of podcasts throughout the night and I was awakened by your adorable voice, regaling us with just enough of a story to intrigue and get your guest talking. What makes a good conversation? Yet another question. I don't know but you sure do! You are zippy and "on" but never in a syrupy way. We hop on the episode surfboard and are safely carried from the peak of the wave to a soft landing back on the beach as your catchy theme song plays us out. It seems that you have an intimate relationship with each and every one of your guests. Yet how could that be possible? One person simply cannot have that many close friends. Oh and I actually laugh out loud. Frequently. Plus there are useful tips! And even if my attention momentarily drifts, it is only to ponder. Why gifts? Why doesn't he want any? Sparkling banter that lifts me from the cares and worries of my day, interesting people, a light touch but from someone who clearly has the gravitas that comes with surviving tough times without becoming embittered which is no small feat. I love you Bridger. And your podcast too. Never stop!
  • R+Only
    Bridger is a gift
    Normally I can only listen to educational nonfiction podcasts. I always need to be learning something to keep my attention. However, I immediately learned I adore Bridger and that’s important in a way I never understood. He is a gem among coals. Give him a chance 💕
  • Jessabesssa
    If it wasn’t for Amy’s fine voice
    Then I’m hooked on the way you say gifTS. Thank you Bridger for the podcast that I can both walk my dogs to and also fall asleep to. Take it as a compliment or an insult up to you.
  • Brownsn87
    Love it
    Bridger is so witty and clever and is an excellent interviewer. I’m newer to the show and am really enjoying it so far!
  • lomein508

  • Tutu amy
    My new go to podcast
    Love this for my long commute. Easy to listen to, wonderful humor and great guests! My kids are also big fans (rarely gets R rated).
  • Lavrono
    Like having friends over in a pandemic
    Started listening because Emma Thompson was on it. Love listening to this whenever I’m a bit lonely during the pandemic and want to feel like I have friends over while cooking, puzzling, falling asleep, etc. Thanks for the companionship! Edit: Still listening post-pandemic, even though I can have real friends over now. I’ve become very attached to Bridger’s farewell « I love you »!
  • Sarellifry

    What a gem! I love this podcast and the Instagram polls.
  • MingleWithDingle
    Epitome of a Podcast
    This show is the epitome of what a podcast should be because at first I thought, “So what, I just listen to these people talk to each other?” and ended up being absolutely delighted by each hilarious episode. People looking for funny-banter podcasts should definitely give this a listen!
  • Linzydb
    So glad I found this podcast
    So entertaining and relatable!

    Truly a gift
    Bridger Winegar was made to podcast. His voice soothes me. His jokes brighten my day. His interview skills are immaculate. His instagram adds the perfect visual element.
