    Great but
    Well the thing is you can be oppressed listening to this podcast as a straight woman. When the podcast opens i always say “im benito skinner… and im mary beth barone and this is ride ride ride ride.” So fun. When they start to talk about the ride i ALWAYS say “where are we going? Who cares? Ride” but when mary beth asks benny what he is …….. he almost got me. I almost said the f slur and unfortunately I haven’t been the same since. I’ll ride for the podcast when the slur bait stops. They tried to cancel ME

    Heartbroken!
    I used to LOVE this pod. I went to the live show and cried from laughing so hard. I’d tell everyone I knew to listen. I’m not someone who aligns with the right or has ever voted for Trump…and yet the political commentary from MB has really turned me off from listening. We *live* in this political landscape, and I work as a therapist holding space for people’s anger/anxiety/disappointments regarding the current administration. The main reason I listen to comedy podcasts is for a channel to levity and a way to find joy among the madness. If you’re looking for the same, this podcast may not be for you because it doesn’t distance itself from the political discourse.

    Live, laugh, love corn
    The universe this bi girl and gay guy have created is truly amazing. The layered jokes are overwhelming. I could have a full conversation with a fellow Baronie that would make no logical sense to anyone listening. It’s just fun and heart warming goodness. Like a Ferrero Rocher. Crunchy silly jokes wrapped in velvety smooth love. I’ve been OBSESSED and jumped back to listen from the beginning. The evolution of jokes puts Pokémon to shame. The fact that they care so much about their fans’s views is refreshingly different than most media today. They really chair. To callout a post online about not caring for a joke had me floored. I knew starting the conversation would get attention online but to make it into the show itself. I was flattered and tightened my seatbelt and grabbed the little handle on the ceiling. I need more!

    No one understands me anymore
    10/10 podcast. Makes me so happy. Just a 40 yr old woman trying to find joy in this insane world right now and all of a sudden I find myself saying pushy and the voice in my head has become Nina drama . You’re healing us one podcast at a time . Love ya !
  • Mikelovesmovies159
    Fav podcast ever
    Literally my fav podcast ever!! I have never laughed so hard in my laugh!! Love their friendship ❤️
  • nimrodjohnson
    FIGHTAH
    Please please don’t listen to the reviews about the political takes. Marybeth is my hero and I appreciate the info on top of the incredible banter. A proud member of the army of love!
  • cbackman92
    I won’t shut up about this podcast
    This podcast got me through hours and hours of bus rides while traveling in SE Asia and now I won’t shut up about it. I don’t know why I didn’t listen sooner. I’m going back to the beginning and listening to the whole catalog like the obsessed (bleep it!) fan I am.
  • MaggieW4
    Hut hut!
    Hey khedddd, this pod makes me laugh like nothing else in this world. It’s truly a an escape from Gotham City. I never want to be an “i’M FiLmiNg yOU” but would love if we could cut that on the loss of a ch*ld bit :( for the baronies with little baronies on board it’s actually our worst nightmare and a gut punch to hear, even more so for baronies who have actually experienced that loss. Luv u sweat 🫶🏼
  • Maweee1010
    I used to love this pod!
    I used to love love love this pod and have been following the show for a while now! but Marybeth bringing up politics is kind of a buzzkill. It’s been happening more and more in each episode. Totally get it you have a platform and you should speak up about whatever you want! But the political points are not why I tune in. I tune in because of the banter btwn the two hosts. It used to be light and funny. You guys have a great pod but I’m unfollowing because it’s become too political. Just looking for something lighter listening wise!
  • taytaydenise
    Best podcast ever, kehd!!!

    Wow!
    I listened to RIDE! this weekend and it was really good! I really liked this podcast! Mary Beth Barone is so funny. Benito Skinner is hilarious. They made me laugh!
  • HayHay3688
    Fraudulent
    They report bad reviews to get them deleted. Can’t take any negative feedback?
  • Taika Couture
    oh yeah
    there is no one else who could bring me this kind of joy kiiiiid. these two deserve the world.
  • MaegD1999
    Pure joy
    This podcast fills my heart. I mean.. if you want to mainline joy, you’re in the right place with two delightful humans. One of my favorite things (among so many) about Mary Beth and Benito- how much they love their parents. It kills me every time, tearing up just thinking about it. Thank you Ride!
  • McClaire06
    A cult classic
    My favorite podcast! I am a new Baronie as of last month, just finished listening to all episodes of Ride and it just brings me so much joy. I am laughing in the car and on my walks, while constantly texting my fellow listener bestie in the Ride language. Love Mary Beth and Benny for being so hysterical but also having hearts of pure gold. They are national treasures!!!
  • Lola B23
    Guests
    Hi parents if possible I would like the Cousins to be guests. Maybe for a special episode or the finale of season 3. And asks them what they ride for and how growing up with so many cousins shape their life. If possible please.
  • Hi it’s Wade
    A favorite since episode one!
    Queer and silly. Entertaining and earnest. An all-around good time SINCE DAY ONE. I very much ride for their friendship, kiddddd.
  • 10/10 will listen again
    Two besties with a heart of gold
    I really needed this podcast. They will show you something, something unbelievables.
  • Emsuzannah
    I’ve never not laughed out loud at an episode
    I can’t stress enough how much I love this podcast. I look forward to it every week. Mary Beth and Benny feel like my hilarious long lost besties and siblings (maybe even cousins IYKYK) Start from the beginning- first episode of season 1- bc you really need the full lure
  • agirlwhocares21
    Love y’all
    But a year-plus in, and no mention of the genocide of Gaza. Babes, it’s a holocaust happening in real-time. It doesn’t need to be at the center of the convo but I can’t participate in convos that don’t even address it. It makes me feel crazy—are you not seeing what the rest of us are seeing?
  • Strawberrymangoss
    The best 💗
    The funniest, most real & sweetest friends ever. Y’all ALWAYS get me out of a funk & make me laugh. Forever a fan :)

    I’m literally obsessed with this podcast and Benny + Mary Beth. They are so funny it makes me sick!!!!
  • CityandSurfMN
    Laugh out loud funny
    Benito Skinner and Mary Beth Barone remind me of best friends I’ve met in college and this podcast is comparable to when we get together; it’s real and it’s hilarious. Favorite podcast, so funny, wholesome and many millennial/gen z references.

    Fita the good fita
    In a dreary world that hits us with tidal wave after tidal wave of disappointment, B & MB give us a delightfully unhinged reprieve. Through thin and thinner they deliver irreverent, but undeniably relatable, takes on the favorited and forgotten.

    They.Do.It.With.CHAIR.
    I have been listening to Ride since day one and this podcast is truly one of the best I have ever come across. Obviously, these two have my brand of humor, but they are both exceptionally smart. They are SO funny and the things that they ride for are niche but relatable enough that pretty much anybody could listen to this podcast. Well maybe not *any*body…there’s a lotta lore there honey (so learn it!) Y’all bring me so much joy and I hope you continue this podcast forever. ▶️TAIKA BUTTON. Oh! And it’s almost Racktober. 👻
  • Konkburns
    So funny
    I have to constantly stop myself from bursting out with laughter while at work but I wish Mary Beth would just let Benny have his spazz/funny moments without “dueting” him?
  • caityJ24
    I Ride for Ride
    Everyone needs Benito and Mary Beth in their life. Love this pod and truly wish I was friends with Benny and MB IRL. Their humor is top notch and so Taika. I think I feel in love with both them when I heard the Interstellar episode. I’ve been obsessed ever since.
  • emjhavens
    My favorite podcast EVER
    Benny & Mary Beth feel like my best friends.
  • Jenww9754
    LEAVE DEAR MEDIA
    Michael and Lauryn bosstick who run dear media are horrendous people. They are MAGA trumpers who promote misinformation and push their anti vax agenda. It’s disappointing that Benny and Mary Beth would choose to do business with these people.

    I’m Obs*ssed
    This pod has been a huge surprise to me. I wasn’t sure I’d vibe but here I am having binged every episode in the past week and beginning a relisten. These 2 are so funny and remind me of my besties back home. I genuinely crack up listening to this. Love
  • TerrLeo
    Obsessed
    Nothing is serious, except for everything they talk about on this podcast. 😂 Audibly laughing at work while listening, I love these two.
  • hangryvegan
    I Ride for Ride!
    “It’s really good. I really like it.” This podcast makes me laugh out loud. I’ve never written a review for a podcast in all my life but I just found this after hearing Mary Beth and Benny on Who What Wear, and was instantly hooked. I even find myself giggling to myself when thinking about it throughout the day. I ride for laughter and friendship and this delivers both in such a fun way. Listen from episode one. You will not regret it.
  • MrsAlexH
    I love you guys so much.
    You’re both so funny! I’m always laughing at your jokes and enjoy your ads. This podcast is just the best. I ride for you!
