  • Too many podcasts lumped underneath Almost Famous

    I’ve listened to Ben and Ashley’s Almost Favorite for years and still really enjoy the podcast, but I HATE how iHeart includes other podcasts like Dirty Rush and I Do Part 2 under the Almost Famous umbrella. I have no interest in these other podcasts and I hate that they are automatically put into my podcasts since I’m subscribed to Almost Famous. I find this so annoying that I constantly consider unsubscribing from Almost Famous every time I go into my podcasts. Please separate them! No one wan... more

  • Not the same sadly

    This podcast is my go to for all bachelor related updates. But I hate that we are being bombarded with extra episodes of stuff I don’t want to hear. I guess it’s easy to not listen to them, but I hate that I have to scroll through so many opinions to only hear Ben and Ashley. And where the heck is Ashley?!?! I miss hearing her honest opinions about Paradise. I feel like she was missing for most of the recaps. I miss it the way it was.
