Comedian Julie Klausner's podcast is like disdainfully flipping through US Weekly with your funniest friend.
--GQ Magazine

"A winning combo of Klausner's personal musings and hilarious interviews with pop culture luminaries."
--BUST

"Her ability to blend high/low culture with her personal life and not come off as insufferably self-indulgent is to be marveled; plus, she's so goddamn funny and honest."
--Stark Magazine

"It is a tribute to Julie Klausner's wit and charm that the wandering first 15 minutes of this week's podcast are pretty much just as funny as the subsequent interview."
--The Onion AV Club

"Better than any other podcaster, Julie finds uncommon podcast guests... or interviews the more common guest in a way they never have been before."

“ Recently, the podcast host Julie Klausner, of How Was Your Week, held a live taping of her show in Gowanus, Brooklyn. The room was at capacity; the NPR host Ira Glass and the comedian Sandra Bernhard appeared as guests. The audience was intimately familiar with Ms. Klausner’s material—one woman had submitted a slam-poetry piece based on the show to win a free ticket. Her bonus prize was sitting next to Ira Glass. After the NPR host talked about his favorite snacks, the musician Ted Leo duetted with Ms. Klausner on Avril Lavigne’s “Complicated.” Representatives from the two snack brands sponsoring the evening faced off over whether Pretzel Crisps or Peanut Chews were better. “I’m always flattered when people listen to my show and I never assume that they do,” Ms. Klausner said later. “There’s people who know me from Twitter, or who know my other work, but when they listen to the podcast, I’m like, oh. You know me. ”
