Binge or Cringe

by Jamie Joffe & Suzi Lazarus

TV is our therapy! Binge or Cringe is the podcast and video series for anyone who has ever opened a streaming app and realized that choosing what to watch has become its own full-time job. Jamie Joffe and Suzi Lazarus are here every week to discuss what is worth your time, what is getting more attention than it deserves, and what should be skipped without guilt. Because TV is not just TV anymore. It’s a commitment.. It is therapy. It is escape. It is the thing we turn on when we want to feel something, avoid something or understand why everyone is suddenly talking about the same British detective. On Binge or Cringe, we break down the shows, movies, documentaries, reality TV moments, Bravo drama, guilty pleasures, streaming obsessions and pop culture conversations taking over the group chat. We ask the only question that really matters: Is it a binge, or is it a cringe? Expect honest reviews, strong opinions, inappropriate laughter and TV co
