  • Great podcast!

    i'm a long time listener. really love the topics and guests. plus, the hosts are a perfect combination of professional, intelligent and witty.

    my one complaint? the recent Oprah promos. my app is set to auto-play sequentially. i'll be falling asleep, only to be startled awake! not by the soothing voice of Vanessa. but the Ex-Queen Bee of Day Time TV. i can only pray that our long, national nightmare will soon be over.
