    One and done
    Listened to one episode. Content and knowledge could make for an interesting podcast but the excessive and completely unnecessary swearing reminds me of preteen boys trying to sound cool. It makes them sound so boring and unintelligent that they can’t come up with actual words to express their thoughts and have to take the lazy approach.

    two icons
    a must for any figure skating fan — even if you don’t follow the sport, you’ll be entertained by their witty banter and positive while still honest commentary. love love love them to plushie corner & beyond

    Anastasia
    1) She’s competed at Russian Nationals and was not doing well, hence her decision to compete for Georgia. 2) She’s never visited Georgia before she started representing the country. This is not a skater who had a parent who was Georgian and visited family in the country consistently. 3) She can choose to train in Western Europe. I am sure there are many coaches outside St. Petersburg. Do your research. You have a figure skating podcast. Also, not a prude AT ALL, but why do you have to curse for no reason at all??? I understand cursing for emphasis, but the cursing is excessive and makes NO sense.

    Funny and positive
    Meghan and Neda are a ton of fun. Love their banter and their humor. So positive toward skaters…. And plushies!

    Think about it
    If you want to establish a respected skating podcast then drop the crappy language. It’s just not necessary or needed.I’m guessing you never tasted soap to your lips as a child.🤐 Your content is very good so clean it up and you can compete with the others.

    Not a lot of podcasts make me actually laugh out loud, but…
    These two get me going every time! Love their in-depth and thoughtful coverage. They’re keeping got me excited about a sport that hasn’t been as much pure fun lately. I only wish I had listened to the podcast before going to US Nationals in 2019, maybe I could have met Meghan! (I wasn’t one of the “woo”ers, I promise!)

    This podcast saved my life
    As I drove through MA, CT, PA, OH, IN, IL on the very, very long drive from the Skating Club of Boston to St Louis, they kept me laughing and learning abc thinking so I did not fall asleep. They are funny, but kind. That’s not easy. It is easy to be mean and funny. They know stuff I don’t, especially about music. And their insights make me think about things I never thought of. And someone’s safe word is quadsal, which I adore. I want this podcast to be my best friend.

    well....
    this podcast is amazing, they spill some absolutely delicious hot tea on figure skating, but they don’t talk about hot sexy aliens enough

    The MOST fun figure skating podcast!
    They are consistently kind and hilarious. I always finish an episode in a better mood than when I started. Keep up the good work!

    The best skating buddies you’ll ever need!
    I now only listen to 2 figure skating podcasts...Ice Tea Pod and Jackie Wong’s Ice Talk. That’s all you need when it comes to FS podcasts. I feel like Neda and Meghan are the skating friends I have been looking for all my life since none of my friends have the common sense to enjoy figure skating. And get the Patreon if you can. You won’t regret it. Also...in regards to the best question ever...I would much rather be an Eteri quad girl for a day than Plushenko’s adorable prince of a son. I’m nosy and would give my right leg to do a quad for a day and get the insider Sambo tea.

    Watch what you’re saying
    Skating reviews require opinions and snark, but not f$@& etc. so regularly. It’s unnecessary, and turned off several of my friends from listening. Also watch that screaming in my ear and balanced volume between the two of you. Finally, it’s “men” skaters, not “boys.” Otherwise an entertaining podcast.

    the most fun figure skating podcast!
    This is such a great addition to the (admittedly niche) genre of figure skating podcasts. Two funny people, talking about skating, making snarky internet jokes--that's what this world needs! Highlights: lots of costume chat; lots of theater nerd dramaturgy talk and music theory nerd talk about songs;and the plushie corner and social media updates. This is not really a technical skating podcast like F&W, nor is it all about Big Issues like ITL. It's two fans discussing the stuff that I love about skating. (Now I'm waiting for that pic of Brez to appear in my twitter messages, neda!)

    a new highlight of my week tbh
    i normally wait for new podcasts to collect a decent backlog before i sit down and listen to them, but ice tea podcast has been so much fun and has made me genuinely laugh out loud by my lonesome and im enjoying the whole experience so much. honestly, have a listen asap, they follow the current skating season whether you watch it/keep up with it or not, and ive learned so much and can keep up and enjoy it without having seen any skating besides minimal amounts of the olympics. their friendship comes through loud and clear and its so endearing to hear them joke around together! i cant wait for more 💕💕
