    Please correct the info you gave on Taylor’s 2023 incident. It was not just taken care of. She pled guilty and is on 3 years probation. If she fails her probation which she might with the latest incident they will reinstate her conviction to a Felony

  • Too bad

    I enjoyed the podcast, especially coming from a Toronto based Bravo lover. Sadly, the "I hate feeling sad for white men" comment from a recent episode was a huge turn off. Moronic trendy virtue signalling blanket statements like this serve no purpose.

  • Unfollowed

    I previously enjoyed this podcast, particularly episodes featuring guests like Ryan Bailey. Over time, however, I found that the tone and online presence associated with the show began to distract from the content itself. As a listener, I no longer felt aligned with the direction it was heading, so I’ve stopped listening and unfollowed. It may still appeal to others, but it’s no longer for me as I prefer hosts who can engage with audience opinions and feedback.
