  • Drop the politics

    This podcast has turned into a GIANT commercial. If I would have reviewed this 365 days ago, I would have said 5. But man, a LOT has changed. Please, please just drop your political views for an hour during this podcast. This is not why we listen, if I wanted politics, I would find a podcast on politics. This used to be a good escape from the world; my “guilty pleasure in my free time”, now it’s just Ben and Ashely telling us why we need to hold their same political views. If you’re looking for ... more

  • Listened for GOR

    I love Ashley & Ben! I used to subscribe but had to stop since I kept getting frustrated with the number of commercials AND the shoving of podcasts I have zero interest in listening to. I do like Deanna & Trista/Bob but let me subscribe to them if I want to. Every time I come to check what’s now on the show it’s unless scrolling through pods and people I don’t care about.

    Anyway, I came today to listen to the episode with GOR since Lizzy and Clues are two of my favorites and I wanted to hear t... more

  • UGH. Cindy ”Cinderella” lives in fairytale land .

    The podcast with Cindy was a joke. She is so delusional. Mel had to date numerous women & play the game. It’s a reality show. She thinks she’s such a prize. She barely had any time with him but thought it was realistic for him to give an engagement ring. Would she want her daughter to get engaged so fast ?! Mel didn’t show much on the show but now we see the real man. I LOVE him & Peg-great couple! Cindy’s ego was hurt. Get over over yourself. Ashley was so immature in this interview. Fawning l... more
