This show has slowly become my favourite podcast. I have never been able to listen to the news but simitanously have always felt like I wish I knew more about the news. Who knew I just needed 2 chicks my age to gasbag about it!! Working my way back through the big talks and I LOVE them!!! Keep doing what you’re doing girls, love your work 😆😆
Apple Podcasts5Sammy ErichsenAustralia2 months ago - Wonderful pod
I really enjoying listening to this podcast! It is both informative and entertaining, delving into pop culture, politics, and personal experiences of host & guests. Sarah’s approach to hosting feels really down to earth and accessible in a way that is refreshing. Ps as an American I take 0 issue with valid criticisms of the USA gov not sure why one critic in reviews was so defensive.

not my fave podcast platforming multiple known bullies on their show. Victoria Devine was the final straw. You need to get someone to background check your guests.
Apple Podcasts1Jessjess2323Australia3 months ago - Too woke and one-sided
Tried but just can’t listen to content creators who are so biased and rage baiting about anyone who holds views different to them. The twisting & exaggerations of what someone has said to suit your narrative is boring, self-serving and unprofessional.
