Specifically about segment on Selma Blair. Laughing about someone’s mental health issues is in poor taste. No one said MS caused the medical emergency. Perhaps this woman has psychiatric issues. And absolutely could influence her behavior. A podcast like this just keeps the stigma going. Get some empathy for human beings. Not excusing the behavior, but don’t really know what you’re talking about when you discuss MS nor psychiatric issues. Would have more respect if you had some backing. Clearly ... more
I love your podcast and yours is my go to comfort listening. It’s getting hard to listen when the commercials are louder than your content and/or when one of the mics is too loud. Once that gets dialed in it will be perfect! Keep up the good work.
Really good - I think this podcast could be like amazing tho so I’m surprised by the amount who don’t follow . They have Interesting topics . I follow Nicole and she’s brilliant and her primary job is not podcasting. With that being said , I think they should take a course on podcasting or something . Like it doesn’t flow well when they are talking about stories - just quickly go from one to the next with no transitions, really mispronounced words, Maria always interrupts her mom, some episodes... more
Getting sick of Nicole’s inability to be objective. SOME of the content is based on medical facts, but most of it is just Nicole’s rigid and judgmental opinion. I personally try to move past her ignorance, but it’s hard at times. Hope she reads these reviews! I’m falling out of love of this podcast! Leave your outdated and bigoted viewpoints out of it! My god!
The mispronunciations and bad editing are so distracting. They can’t pronounce really simple stuff, like Ed Kemper, famous Co-Ed killer from CA, is said “Kempner “, over and over, the editing will repeat it self if there is a flub, instead of editing that part out. Instead of saying “David” they spell D4vd, like that’s his stage name, no it’s just said David… I could go on but I hope I made my point. The other info is good, they talk about gross or medical issues in a matter of fact way instead ... more
