Wow, this girl is an idiot. Good guests but my god.
Love U Mommy and luv the show
Sometimes despite Lauren’s best efforts the guest is a dud. Subscribe, listen & usually enjoy but occasionally bail.
Lauren is one of the very, very few podcasters/late night talk show hosts/local newscasters or even just human beings who actually asks a question and lets the interviewee answer. Sounds simple right? It isn’t. Check out other interviews. It goes something like: “What was it like growing up in CA in the 90s? Because for me it was….and I was just wondering… She actually makes the interview about the interviewee and not herself. Excellent.
Like fingernails on a chalkboard!
