    Tig and Mae!!
    Edit-new phone: just re-listened to tig’s ep with Taylor Dane. Tig is unbelievably funny throughout their conversation. She is just a treasure!— I have been a fan of tig’s since her iconic set at largo. I literally restarted feel good last night and love it so much. Two people with incredible talent, humor, and warmth.

    Amazing
    Have only listened to a few but can’t wait to hear the rest of them. Paula Poundstone episode had me laughing so hard. Paula and Tig’s banter was incredible!
  • B_squared
    Just a heads up
    The very end of the very last pod kind of insinuates the lines are still open :)

    Tig for Everything
    I would listen to Tig watch paint dry. I love her. This last episode with Julia Louis Dreyfus is possibly my favorite ever - and now that it’s all over, I think I’m drawn to rewatch Tig’s planet-healing cancer special yet again. Seems right. Thank you, Tig!!! (And will switch over to your Handsome podcast posthaste.)❤️❤️❤️

    Tig
    Can’t believe I just discovered this pod. It’s hilarious and now I find out it’s over. I’ve seen Tig in Tampa last year and thought I couldn’t laugh any harder. I was wrong. My new favorite podcast. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣
  • Where ya wanna eat?
    I’m so sad!
    The last episode?? Ugh! I’m in tears! I’ve enjoyed this podcast for so long, absolutely brightens my day; I even hum the theme songs all the time! It’s been great and thank you Tig, everyone tune in the Handsome these ladies are awesome ❤️
  • keep womens music alive
    Oh Tig,
    oh no, Tig🙃😪😘 everything you do captures my heart and fancy, laughs, tears…so grateful there is always something else to listen to and watch and listen and rewatch. I will never tire of any of your gifts, but most especially One Mississippi. And amazing the insights I absorbed from Don’t Ask Tig… And love this special theme song is a favorite. Love to you, Stephanie and the boys🦦🐬🦋

    Noooooooooo
    I’m beyond sad that this podcast is ending. One of my favorites.😩 😢
  • pmoralesny
    WARNING! You could die laughing!
    This show should come with a warning that you should NOT be driving/walking/handling machinery whilst listening as you could suddenly start laughing and/or crying so hard you may lose touch with some/all your senses and possibly control of some of your body functions!!!! Amazing host + fabulous guests = best podcast! Thanks Tig.
  • JessArtMe
    Better than therapy
    Tig is magic, when I’m listening to this show I feel like I’m sitting down with an old friend and all the weight of the world is melted away. I could just listen to her all day.
  • magicalkaleidoscope
    Tig is just the best
    My FAVORITE podcast to listen to when I want to smile or laugh. Thank you Tig!!!
  • Pamcakey!
    I Love Tig!
    I enjoy this podcast. Tig is one of the coolest people on earth, as we Pisces usually are! I look forward to the casual, relevant and humorous discussions. I’ve learned so much from all the guests as they’ve brought their wide variety of experiences. Her games at the end are an addition treat. Especially Advice Of Yesteryear.
  • Dr. Nomecat
    Penance for the tomatillo guy was just cruel!
    Wow. Just, wow.

    NAME…..THAT……THING!!!!
    An absolutely delightful show.

    I’m better now!
    Thank you Tig and all your experts! I’ve been struggling with anxiety (single mother of Autistic teen) and have tried everything from Zoloft to boxes of wine. Nothing has helped me cope with life’s challenges. Nothing until Tig’s advice show. I’m better now. 👍

    Citizen Cane!
    I LOVE this podcast but while listening to the Amanda Kloots episode I was shouting “Citizen Cane!!!!!” Could you hear me? No?…… ok.
  • mooglitz
    Sandra Bernhardt ♥️
    Now THATS a quality guest. I forgot how great she is.
  • aimlys
    SANDRA!!
    Love ALL of Tig’s shows! They are funny and offer great (or at least, humorous) advice. I have always loved Sandra Bernhard! Another great episode!

    Tig, you have fans in East Tennessee!
    Hey Tig!! Im a Snerkbol and huge fan of all your work. I just listen to your latest episode with Pete Holmes. As usual, it was thoughtful and hilarious. However, I wasn’t sure if you were joking or not when you were answering a letter from a lady and you didn’t understand why she was referring to her family as her People or her baby is it. I am from East Tennessee, and it sounds to me like she is from somewhere in Appalachia. Because many of us from this region refer to our family as our people and, we don’t always use proper English/grammar. But many of us still love you. Thanks for all the laughs!! Sincerely!!! Angie from Greenville Tennessee
  • Jornywar
    Mwah 💋
    In addition to a fantastic show (Tig + fantastic/any guest = how could you go wrong), I love that the ads are a lower volume than the main content 😊
  • Ratatoullie Fan
    We love Tig
    This podcast is engaging, fun, interesting, and heart warming as well as so so funny. Tig and guest make me laugh so hard! Thank you Tig and guests.
  • Casnh
    Great guests
    Lots of great guests, entertaining format, nice & short
  • becswc
    Comedy not science
    Very entertaining and lives up to the name. Come for the laughs, someone else’s opinions and move on with your life. I’ll never become a vegan because of this show and I’m sure a lot of others won’t follow her advice but that’s ok. It’s still entertaining.
  • 123_archivios
    I want to hear more voices
    Tig, You are so funny. No cap. Thanks for making me laugh. Can we hear more Black people? Latino people? Roll out some episodes featuring LGBTQ peeps? Please and thank you.
  • Auntpatrice
    One Mississippi
    What took me so long to check out Tig’s show on HuLu? If you love Tig, you’ll love her 2 season portrayal of her life. It brought me to tears and left me loving her even more.
  • Shrink’s perspective
    Love it
    I’ve fount Don’t Ask Tig a few months ago and have listened to all the current and back shows available. Although I’m a psychologist who sometimes cringes at the “help” offered, I realize it’s entertainment and the people asking for help have been warned. I love that you do recommend therapy for difficult situations. But mainly I love the humor and cleverness of Tig and her guests. It’s one of my new favorite podcasts. Thank you. Suzanne

    Ditch Better Help
    Tig, does the podcast really need money from a company that bates mentally ill and marginalized folk????? Please tell me your team is working on parting ways. They’re a sketchy scam!!!! Look into it. I feel like you want to do the right thing, I hope so and leading people to a site thats causing more harm is not the way!!! I don’t think it’ll be long before you and Cheryl are reviewing a documentary about the scam that is Better Help…..
  • Jbs7988
    Love Tig!
    Tig, your p’cast is amazing. I was so happy to hear Allison Janney&Cyndi Lauper. Looking forward who is coming down I had the honor of hearing her when she performed at a benefit for her son’s school.

    Being trapped brought me here
    I was already a fan of yours but didn’t know of this podcast - until I recently posted about my experience just this week being trapped in a hotel bathroom for over 2 hours. What? Well, a friend told me she thought you had an experience being locked in a bathroom and that I should write to you about it and that I also should listen to this podcast, which I have - and I love it. Listening to all episodes. So, here I am - still traumatized but not alone. Linda from NC

    Don’t ask her!
    I love her, I love her guests, I listen to everything she does. I’ve seen her live, watched One Mississippi from inception and really do miss that show. My only complaint is that she doesn’t do these podcasts at least 40 hours a week :) Love you tig! I also listen to Tig n Cheryl. You make me happy and I appreciate y’all!
  • TJWenker
    100th episode
    I have not been here from the beginning, but pretty close. Happy 100th episode.
  • bmgdem789
    Great show
    Hey Tig, great show. Please don’t recommend outdoor cats. They kill tons of wildlife, including song birds whose numbers are in pretty drastic decline. Cats are wonderful pets; they’re also an invasive species. If you like hearing birds singing, don’t have outdoor cats.
  • KamiCujo
    Looking Crazy
    While I am literally laugh out loud several times throughout each episode! I can completely relate to the lack of “range” and thank you Tig for making me feel better about my demeanor! You’re hilarious! ❤️

    Contact/Question Link Not Working
    Hi, The website contact link and the question link do not seem to be working. Love the show! 🥰🤗
  • Blehbleh2
    Can we clone Tig?
    How can anyone be so funny and smart all at the same time! Tig is a gift to the world! I can’t tell you how many times she has helped me smile through some really tough situations. Thank you Tig for your wisdom. 🫶🏻
  • ARamsIsPlanty
    A staple of my week
    Thank you for being you!
  • Mollster7767
    Wow! Dorthy Dix is real!?
    I’m flabbergasted. I was totally convinced, like Kristen, that Dorthy was a bitter man, smoking a cigar, in a too-tight suit, cough-laughing evilly to himself, in a poorly lit skyscraper office, as he writes these responses. Loved learning about the real person’s life! Also, this show is wonderful. Tig is the best and sometimes gives good advice. Okay, usually :) I love that this show focuses on the questions and responses. A lot of advice shows seem to spend 75% of the time interviewing the guest and only leave time for 1 or 2 questions. You can tell Tig really cares about her listeners!
  • Kimmer64
    Best Podcast
    I absolutely love Tig!! Her humor is delightful. I especially enjoyed the episode with Billy Crudup. I have always been a huge fan of Billy, but I was surprised to discover how how hilarious he is in real life. The two of you together had me rolling!! Thanks for making my day!!❤️❤️
  • ElaynaZ
    My only problem with this show is it’s too short!
    This is hands down my favorite comedy podcast. I love Tig and her guests. I just wish it was a longer show because it always ends too soon for me!!
  • RowanCastle
    Love Tig!
    I just love Tig! Everything she does is just so fun to watch/listen to! The guests are fantastic and every episode is pure delight—full of hilarity and sincerity. Everyone needs to be listening to this!
  • beelkay
    Spin-off, please! “Advice from Yesteryear: A Whole Podcast””
    I love this show and listen to it multiple times per week (I’m still catching up on old episodes). I have to ask/beg/cajole/demand that Tig and company do a spin-off that’s all Advice from Yesteryear. It’s my favorite segment, and I’m always excited when I hear it come up at the end of an episode! Think about it - there is so much material out there. This spin-off could run for years! Aside from the comedy, it would also be a great opportunity to look at societal changes and perspectives over the past 100 years. Pleeeeeease pleaaaaaase pllllllease do it!

    Stick to the comedy, skip harmful nutrition advice
    I love Tig’s humor and enjoy most episodes of this podcast. However, I completely agree with Christopher with a K’s review that Tig’s nutrition-related advice and comments are a surprising blind spot for someone usually uplifting and empathetic. Rather than maybe briefly referencing her personal experience, as it is her show, Tig often makes flat out self-righteous and fatphobic comments on the topic of food. Bums me out as someone in recovery from an eating disorder and much healthier in a bigger body; I skip ahead or skip these episodes entirely when the subject comes up, and it does rather often.
  • Graydogyou
    Love it!
    Love the podcast!!!! Love your humor and love the interviews! I listen to podcasts mostly on 1.5x so the other day was the first day I heard your theme song on the normal speed and I thought something was wrong. FYI your theme sounds amazing at 1.5x!!
  • emerson0421
    I love Tig
    This looks s the best! Thank it is so dryly funny, which is my favorite kind of funny, so every interview is so much fun to listen to! I can't believe this podcast has been around this long without me finding it. I will be binging for sure.
  • punkyso
    A wonderful part of my week

  • Jembycakes
    Tig to the max
