    Way too many commercials with zero transition. Every other podcast transitions professionally into commercials. This one interrupts practically mid sentence. Comes off as low budget and amateur. Talking over guests is obnoxious. Guests talking over host is obnoxious. Lorena Bobbetts endlessly backstory was beyond boring and irrelevant. Couldn’t even get to the actual topic of the crime committed because the fluff droned on and one.

  • Bringing realness to my pod rotation!

    Rachel is smart, authentic, insightful, and makes me rethink everything I *think* I know about people. I’ve heard some of her guests interviewed by others. Rachel’s neutral, nonjudgmental approach is quite disarming-guests actually answer ... more

Lorena Bobbitt Tells Her Side — Should John Wayne Bobbitt Come On Next?

Q: Do you remember leading up to the Sandusky arrest and the awareness there was an investigation?

BONUS EPISODE: Inside the Mind of Perez Hilton — The Interview That Hits Differently Now
