  • 🙄🙄

    In the latest episode on summer travel hacks she plugs Dollar General SO HARD like the most obvious product placement and even though this is clearly an ad, she doesn’t come out and identify it as one. That sucks! If you’re budget-minded you know that dollar stores are not great, for your budget or the neighborhood. Done listening to that episode and I’m not sure I can trust Laura’s info to be objective moving forward. Oof!

  • Definitely not non partisan

    Why would you call the recent tax bill “One Big Beautiful Bill” over and over like you have so much glee about this harmful bill? You could have referenced it once with this ridiculous and nonsensical name, and then called it by its neutral legislative name of H.R.1. You also did not outline all of the negative impacts this bill will have. Can’t follow someone who clearly is a MAGA who wants to eat their cake and watch others suffer.

  • Informative and unbiased

    Love the podcast, it is very informative but obviously for an US audience. I would love to find a similar podcast for Australia.
