Whitney is insufferable. Echo chamber for miserable people
This show is awesome! I especially love whenever Whitney Pastorek and Nicole Williams are paired up to talk about the news and local politics. They are incredibly knowledgeable and care deeply about Nashville/Nashvillians.
I was a regular listener and I just can’t stand her ego anymore. She’s insufferable. Marie is the best part of this show and I really want to like it, but Whitney is too unpleasant to continue listening.
Whitney is as spiteful, unempathetic, & uncurious as the people she loves to dunk on, all with a pure ego-driven moral superiority complex layered on top.
City Cast Nashville is a great way to stay informed about what’s going on in the city. They choose interesting people doing cool things and do a great job interviewing them to tell the story. I dig it!!
