Recently, I've become a bit in love. Well, let's drop the bit. And it's also quite a category of group-eight crushes, because he doesn't even know who I am. Yes, I'm just like many others in love with Rijk Hofman.

How could you not be, by the way? I really crack up completely over his YouTube channel. Videos about TikTokers, about Love Island, about Temptation — I love it. It's wonderful to tear everything apart with plenty of self-mockery. But it so happens that I'm currently in tropical vibes (Curacao, not a punishment) and that bright sun makes it so hard for me to watch YouTube videos by the pool. Yes, I know: real First World Problems going on here.

So I've started listening to the podcast BROERS, with Rijk and his brother Sam. And believe me: you want to listen to this too. Whether you're lying by a pool at 30 degrees or at home on the couch, this one is a delightful listen. They are both such fun guys and they are so incredibly funny that I attract quite a bit of attention because I'm sitting there laughing out loud with my earbuds in.

Normally, I mainly listen to true crime podcasts, but I wanted something different and lighter — this is everything you want and more.
