  • I don’t think so

    I can’t listen to this anymore, half of the podcast is talking about herself. I tune in to listen about trash TV, not you and your condescending remarks.

    Oh and you know nothing about Julia on Miami, she is a social climber, how can one diagnose a person on TV? You don’t have any insight to who she is. She is horrible in my opinion.
