Easy to follow

Easy bc she’s good at telling the story. She keeps it going quickly and smoothly and she occasionally makes me laugh when she adds her one line opinion/exclamation. I saw the Diddy Netflix doc series and she did a really good job recounting it. I will check out other eps:)

I tune in. I like what you cover. It’s a good escape from a lot of serious news.
Simply the best… and about R Kelly

This is my absolute favorite. Must listen to podcast every week. Demi is not just a friend in my head, but she’s kinda like my younger sister in my head, which means a lot because I’m an only child and I like that. Anyway, if you’re not listening to this show, I don’t know what you’re doing with your life. You’re getting the wrong information and no laughs at all. Now… About R. Kelly… Cousin Symone, the attorney said that we need to continue streaming R. Kelly because that’s the only way the victims get their money. Who knew?!!! Well, our Cousin attorney did.
