  • Not My Style

    Comes across very negative. The host, Meghan speaks entirely too fast, so it’s very difficult to understand what she says. Closed captioning even has a hard time keeping up!! She doesn’t complete her sentence before starting a new one. She should S L O W D O W N…take breaths. Melisa is much easier on the ears— I would recommend letting her talk more!!

  • I'm Sorry 🤷‍♀️

    I started listening about 3 weeks ago& I must say I was enjoying everything I was hearing. Politically and advise wise. I'm a progressive democrat so I welcomed most all the political banter. Until you were talking about the Grammys. I am a staunch Cowboy Carter supporter and fan. Most importantly for bringing Rhiannon Giddens and the black artists in bluegrass to the forefront. Country music radio has paid the better part of my household bills for the last 25 years. The conservatives and... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

My Friend is Part of The Problem
Q: Should I reach out to my friend who I cut off due to different views on our toxic work environment?
It's better not to reach out since he is complacent in workplace harassment and hasn't shown willingness to change.
They Wished They Could Do What In Your Mouth?
Q: Am I wrong for telling my sister, it is selfish and stupid to bring two small children to a protest?
You were being too harsh, calling your sister stupid and selfish. It's important for children to learn about advocacy and responding to social issues.
BAIW: The Bisexual Compromise (Show Finale!)
Q: Am I wrong for wanting to explore this side of myself, even though I love my boyfriend and I don't want to lose him?
The hosts suggest that if he is not open to exploring your bisexuality beyond a threesome, then you should consider the relationship's compatibility.
DBM: Co-Worker Threesome
Q: Is it possible to maintain a friendship with someone after they confess feelings for you?
Once feelings are confessed, it generally changes the dynamics of the friendship, and it's often difficult to maintain the same level of connection without complications arising.
BAIW: He Took Back He Loved Me
Q: Am I wrong to feel this way or is my gut right that something isn't okay here?
You're not wrong for feeling insecure; you should reconsider your relationship with someone who retracted their feelings.
