stop exploiting your ex and his family for personal gain, everyone knows you lied about who fathered your child and seriously stop talking about sex when you’re anti-feminist
Super boring and monotone.
Love listening to you guys every week, honestly best podcast and amazing topics with the best guests!!!
We all know and love George. So excited he’s a guest host this week!
I’ve tried to listen to this podcast and I have to say it’s super boring. They make the guests do all of the heavy lifting. Can we stop giving celebrities podcasts just because they were famous 20 years ago?
