  • Disappointed

    This used to be one of my favorite podcasts by and for women but now it’s the podcast Well Played. I unsubscribed because if I wanted the content on Well Played, I would have subscribed to that. It’s too bad that in a time where we really need women’s voices talking about the issues women face today, The Skimm is no longer there for us.

  • Mostly good

    I really like hearing the hosts’ perspectives on sports and like hearing about the sports I don’t know much about, but they are SO biased against the Buffalo Bills! They spend way too much time talking about Taylor Swift and the Chiefs. So annoying.
