  • Good Stories, Skip the Commentary

    UPDATED: Girl - you can’t take 20 minutes to edit the placement of the ads in your episodes? What is going on?? You work in media!

    The stories are interesting but the host cannot give decent advice to save her life. Kind of weird to listen to people bare their souls and share their traumas with someone who has the emotional intelligence of a Buzzfeed quiz.

  • Getting Worse

    The storytelling is getting so boring and almost monotone. It makes it very hard to listen to and does not hold my attention at all. Sometimes the hose doesn’t even seem interested.

  • I love Abby!!!!!

    I am a longtime listener of the bird show and also a 28-year-old woman so I really can relate to Abby a lot. I think she is so funny, outgoing and honest, and I appreciate that so much, especially from such a fake world that we live in! I love these break up stories super entertaining only con that I would say is there is not enough stories put out and I end up re-listening to old stories please put out more. You are amazing. Don’t stop doing this podcast !!!

  • The sound quality is horrible

    I couldn’t get through the first 5 minutes because of the puffing on the mic and tin can quality of sound. For god’s sake invest in some better equipment!! This is like a b- movie low production of podcasts. Cringe!
