Customer Reviews
What can’t these gals do!
Another epic podcast by Shameless Media group. I have been loving all of the new series within this podcast show from the intimate discussions with authors, stranger than fiction and now Tastemakers. I can always find something new and interesting here and love keeping up with the monthly book clubs.
The hosting is awful
Honestly, Zara and Michelle need to just do all their podcasts. The premise for this is great but the young girls are always laughing, eilish has the lost strange high pitch scripted voice and it all is unbearable to listen to.
Disappointing
I would expect the bare minimum preparation is to read the book you are discussing the adaption of, no? And basing judgements on the book without finishing it feels unfair.
Also please edit out the constant giggling, it’s hard to listen to
