  • Great pod!

    Been loving the addition of Hot Takes and the Q&A episodes. Awesome research. Love the passion she has. I’m fine with the ads - she should be compensated for the work she puts in to the pod.

  • Not what it used to be.

    This podcast is a joke, I guess if you’re a left leaning democrat then you’ll probably like it. Hard to believe the spouse has any prior law enforcement if he is dumb enough to agree with what she’s saying. What a waste of what could of been a decent podcast

    And lately she’s doubling down a a little too much on her ... more

  • A long time listener always eager for new episodes

    I really enjoy this podcast and look forward to every Monday when a new one is released! I see commentary about being frustrated with ads, I get it, but it’s easy to skip through and doesn’t stop me from listening. Also seeing reviews saying people won’t listen anymore because they’re republican and unhappy with previous remarks. I don’t share the same political views as Heather but I refuse to base my entire existence around politics. These podcasts are informative and entertaining and politica... more
