I love the stories and am grateful for the vulnerability of the guests! However, Mackenzie’s responses to shocking claims are so judgmental. Her “OMGs!!!!” sounds like an indignant teenager and they are incredibly shaming. The gasps don’t seem supportive or empathic.
I absolutely love The Dating Detectives podcast and look forward to it every Monday!! Hanna and Mackenzie are the best and are so attentive and respectful to all their guests.
This podcast is literally my favorite thing about the week ! Mondays are now my favorite day.. listening to these lady’s talk while I start my morning (I own a daycare and this is how I open in the morning) it feels like I have been friends with them for years and we are just chatting in the morning! I love how informative it is yet casual !!
These ladies have a great concept for a podcast and I think they do an amazing job! I always tune in on Monday and have a debrief with my sister and mom later that day. Kinda like a book club. I consume a lot of true crime and this podcast is exactly what I needed to break up all the intense cases there is in the world. These stories are very real and traumatic for guest. I appreciate the safe space Makenzie and Hannah give to them to share. I wish people were nicer and understand everyone’s exp... more
Just finished all the episodes and I wanna give some advice to girls: if a dude is a 6’4 BEAST and rich (which they always are) and you try to control his entire life, maybe don’t be surprised when he leaves you for a different girl. Every story is just “this BEAST of a man had fun with me and it was good, so I ain’t leaving him no matter what he does and I’ll think he didn’t do it really only because he’s jacked and rich. (No hate btw suit yourself) - Patrick M Jane
