  • Has this podcast ended??

    Enjoyed this back when it was on and would give it higher stars if it came back, but they have seemingly vanished from updating it (it’s been several months) and don’t appear to be sharing if it’s a permanent stop or temporary hiatus . If it’s ended and there will be no new episodes, just say so. I don’t need the old replay episodes filling up my podcast feed.

Dishonest and clearly done to juice the failing ratings. As someone who has enjoyed the show and watched it from start to finish several times this podcast will make you want to never watch again. These women are insufferable. They constantly talk over each other and tell stories that not only have nothing to do with the show but are also just wildly bor... more
