  • Rude and unprofessional

    The moral of the story/review— don’t meet your heroes. I’ve enjoyed this podcast for a long time. Usually, Chelsea and Catherine give thoughtful, useful advice. So much so that I decided to write in with a problem of my own. I know what to do about my problem (mostly!) but I thought it would be fun to get Chelsea’s take. Much to my surprise, Catherine responded to my email and we had a great conversation. But when it came time for me to talk to Chelsea and her guest, Chelsea was incredibl... more

  • TOO MANY ADS

    Love Chelsea and the great guests she has, but this podcast seems to be a vehicle for ads, not really interested in being sold a bunch of stuff I don't need.

  • Mary Ellis episode

    I just wanted to respond to Chelsea’s question she had asked in this episode. She asked, or inquired, why women now are opening seats at the table. Well it’s because of her and women like her. Chelsea has always said what’s on her mind and never held back. I’ve been watching/ listening to you for over a decade and I appreciate all you do!

  • It’s so cool to deadname a trans woman

    Not only did you release an episode deadnaming Caitlin Jenner over and over again, but you made it part of your advertising? Shame on you! I don’t care how nasty of a person she is, trans women deserve better. Especially in the current climate.
