  • Mostly fun! (but please fact check)

    I appreciate the banter and the content - please don’t listen to the negative reviews and keep talking about your lives! It humanizes you. Also - I love listening to two clearly intelligent and confident women. All that can be true *and* more judgment can be exercised about what “facts” you’re confident about and which are just hunches or guesses.

    I mean, it’s pop culture so we can take anything too seriously, but at least 2-3 times per episode something is dogmatically stated (usually by Julie... more

  • wow just pure tone deaf

    Just a joke: how often do these women beg for gifts/products and then turn around and talk about how wealthy they are…unreal!!!!

    If you want to listen to a podcast about their boring lives, go for it.

  • Please help!

    I love hanging out with Juliet and Amanda. I am wondering if there’s a way to have someone fact-check Juliet’s outline pre-episode? I’m just 10 minutes into today’s episode and we’ve already heard that Ben Affleck was on Jeopardy (he wasn’t - it was Who Wants to be a Millionaire), Andrew Garfield is in a Beatles movie (Amanda caught this one) and that Phoebe Bridgers’ album came out (not yet). Maybe it’s because I like the same things as Amanda and Juliet, but it’s a bummer to get excited about ... more

    Is the most annoying podcaster. Also, why are these two spending so much time talking about the Real Real and strollers?

  • Control Amanda’s Caffeine Intake!

    I love Jam Session. I listen religiously. However, please ask Amanda to control her emotions and screechy rants. Juliet (and Sean on Big Picture) do what they can to help smooth her extremely strong opinions…however, please calibrate her time on the microphone. She thinks she is funny. But, she is not.

    Thank you.
