  • Can be tough to listen to

    Can come off incredibly judgmental and a know it all … I just wish she wouldn’t be so quick to jump to conclusions about people or write people off. Mandy is clearly a very smart & accomplished person in life but her tone comes off like she is lecturing the listener in a way I do not experience from other bravo podcasts.
