Take yourself back in time...back to high school. The ups and downs, the loves the losses, the struggles the triumphs, being together with your friends...feeling every emotion of it. Is 23 more than just a number to you? Do you respond to people by saying I don't wanna be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately? Do you expect to have life-changing moments while caught in the confett... more

  • Looking for insight, not politics

    Love hearing about the episodes. I just wish there wasn’t comments on politics etc. I watch shows like this to get away from politics. I tend to skip the rest of the episode as soon as politics is invoked. I also wish just the drama queens shows showed up and not the work in progress episodes. They literally have nothing to do with each other

  • Updated: Review - Like revisiting family

    I love Sophia, but highjacking one podcast feed to pump out episodes from a different podcast will always feel like a betrayal.

    ——-

    OTH was a big part of my teenage life. Small town, abusive family, mean friends, I clung to this show for survival. Like all things, I grew up, moved on, carved a life for myself. This podcast has been like catching up with not just old friends but family. Hearing the bts stuff and what they we’re all going through during the show makes the impact this show had on... more

  • Good Sam wasn’t good at all, nor is Sophia’s acting anymore.

    So I’ve listened to Sarah Shahi on at least 5 podcasts this month. EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS SO FUN AND ENGAGING EXCEPT SOPHIA’S!! Per usual Sophia just aims to use as many words as possible in every sentence. I’m sure she thinks this conveys intellect. Unfortunately, the truth is, her over side of words and forced wisdom creates the most nonsensical and absurd conversation. The more words she uses, the less she actually says. I’m so bored and I KNOW Sarah is NOT boring. Sophia needs to snap out of t... more

  • Stop with the WIP episodes

    This is easily one of my top three podcasts. What’s not one of the other top three podcasts is Sophia’s WIP podcast. STOP posting those episodes to the OTH feed. If I wanted to listen to that, I would have subscribed to it. It’s beyond annoying to get a notification thinking that the Drama Queens are coming back for a special episode or update to just be let down again.
