If you are looking for a podcast that recognizes that people on reality tv are humans with complex emotions and behaviors, this one’s for you! Listening to Melissa is like chatting with that rare, emotionally intelligent friend whose takes I always want to hear, even if I disagree!
Like the pod, but hearing Howie Mandel’s blaring voice in the middle of one of your sentences - as all the commercials do - is tough to listen to Thx!

I appreciate Melissa’s insights into behavior. I also very much value her willingness to educate around issues. Particularly, for me, sibling loss. I find Melissa balanced and fair. In addition to the podcasts she does on her own, she also has guests who are also insightful and entertaining.
Melissa is fantastic and gives the best insight on Bravo!
