  • As much as I don’t want to…

    I love Shannon. But for someone who’s been doing “this” for so long. The quality and the content should be sooooooo much better.

  • Sound Terrible

    I like the old format better. I thought it was genuine and off the cuff. Now it’s just reading questions. Also, the sound quality is terrible. It’s either really loud or I can’t hear her talking.

  • Samantha Ronson 🤩

    What an incredible surprise to see her as a guest!!

    I introduced myself to her when she was DJ’ing in Vegas around 2008.

    I'll always remember how friendly she was. Total class act and gorgeous too. I love how she is genuine.

    I've never heard her on a podcast and I felt this was a fun deep dive. I now consider her an inspiration!

    Such a fan for life. If you see this Samantha, you're just the best! 💛
