Comforting

I really got into this podcast over The Pandemic when social isolation got me--and many others--real down. Sasheer and Nicole have the kind of rapport friendship dreams are made of, and I find being privvy to it once a week real pleasure. I love it so much I subscribed to Stitcher Premium just so I could go through the archival episodes!

Thanks Nicole and Sasheer!!

I do enjoy this podcast, I just wish there was more structure and it was 15-20 minutes shorter.

Edit: I LOVE this show and also think it’s only gotten better over the years (re: my above comment) but whose idea was it to re run an episode from April 2020? Absolutely horribly depressing to hear about zoom karaoke and w speculation on when quarantine will end…

Give Nicole More TV Roles

I like the podcast but I have an observation. Nicole has shared her challenges with how her brain works. But Nicole speaks well and articulates her thoughts well. While Sasheer seems to struggle to find her words a lot. Her speech pattern is hard to follow at times, it’s very choppy. And her power is missing from her voice. Why Won’t You Date Me Podcast with Nicole is a better listen in my opinion. Looking forward to seeing and hearing Nicole in more things.
