Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 4.8k ratings
  • Too many ads

    I think this is an iHeart/Black Effect issue, but 4 minutes worth of ads before the pod, and during each ad break is so ridiculous. This podcast is good when people aren’t talking over each other and letting one another (especially Jason when he’s virtual) get a thought out. Also, not a sports person so I’m always confused when yall start talking sports. Anyway, Mandii, I support you and hope this podcast succeeds!

  • Audio issues!

    I love the podcast, long time supporter. But the audio is lower than the ads and every other podcast I listen to even at max volume in my AirPods. It is so low. It sounds like it’s being recorded in the next room as opposed to the actual studio please fix this.

  • She ain’t slick

    Mandi think she slick, she converted this from the “see the thing is” podcast cause every time I try to look the old episodes up in my library I can’t find them but this show pops up… I don’t subscribe to this show. I don’t like back handed tactics to make one’s numbers seem up. Corny.
