The June 17 episode with Rob Shuter is so much fun! Just amazing!
I really wanted to like this podcast. It always has such interesting topics, but then when I listen to it I just hear the host talk so negatively about people. It doesn’t make them look bad it makes HER look bad.
Listening to Maureen and her guests at The Nerve is like spending a fun afternoon with a quiet wine, good people , fun chatter , laughter and serious talk too , I just love it ! 🥰
Love from Australia.
Billy Bush is my favorite guest you’ve ever had! This is exactly the type of content I love. He tells it like it is and so do you. Even if you disagree it’s an amazing conversation
