Hilarious!!!!

Such a hilarious one-man show headlining God and a great reminder I these trying times to keep perspective, don't take things too seriously, and not to confuse faith with common sense. I'm certain God has a sense of humor. Sean Hayes was a brilliant narrator, very engaging. It felt a lot like being in the audience.

Hilarious!

The voices, the characters and the overall story were hilarious.

The story was a bit disjointed towards the end, but one is still able to stay with it. I just loved it!

Irreverent and witty - a classic Hayes role

This was a very funny listen! Sean Hayes as the personification of God was hilarious (as he always is). It was quite irreverent, but the Q&A format was fun. I would listen to this again. The song at the end was truly a gift!

hahaha, very witty but forgetable

This could be a great stage performance by someone who is a bit naughty, witty and has his or her own signature style to spice up the monologue. I have burst out laughing at many places but yet, looking back a week later I don't really remember much.
I member that I definitely enjoyed it while it lasted ;)

Hilarious and irreverent in the most reverent way

I loved this so much. Even as a person of faith nothing in this was offensive but quite humorous. Good way to not take your religion so seriously 😊
