United Statesa year ago - Bloodthirsty
I feel like I used to occasionally agree with Jess's takes but for the past year the shows she's reviewing are the most violent blood thirsty or horror-tinged ones and I just can't go there. Also, she seems to pride herself more and more on her obnoxious hot takes slagging off things that most people like which has made her increasingly unlistenable for me

I enjoy Jess’s analysis and commentary on K-dramas— I usually tend to agree with her perspective or, if I disagree, I at least perceive where she is coming from. I feel like she is very thoughtful, considerate, and fun, loving when it comes to this podcast. it’s one of the main drama podcasts I regularly listen to.
