  • Dissapointing.

    Had to unfollow after the recent events. Was considering unfollowing anyway, as it's basically Drew just telling the same stories over and over, mirroring whoever she's talking to in the moment, hating on whoever she perceives them to hate, etc. Doesn't seem very genuine or curious right now as an interviewer. Just kinda boring after a while. Too bad, as I still like her, just not enough to give my time to her when I could be listening to someone else.

  • love - but some guests need to be louder

    I genuinely love this show but I’ve noticed that sometimes the guest mic needs to be turned up higher. Just listened to the ep with Mary Beth Barone💛 and her mic is so quiet that its hard to find a comfortable volume to listen to both her and Drew. I love that Drew is loud - never change girl! But sometimes i have to crank the volume all the way up to hear the guest (especially on a train or in the car) and then Drew’s voice is too loud.

  • Why are we supporting ppl that can’t take criticism?

    I liked listening to this occasionally but I cannot support someone who can’t just apologize and take accountability. If you can’t take any critique then you don’t need me as a listener.
