Amazing! Adds value to my life

I really appreciate this podcast. I look forward to it every week. I could write an essay about how much and why I love it. Chelsea, Katherine and the guests are always awesome. The humor, conversations and advice are always relatable. 5 STARS!

Great rabbi ep

Deep and got me emotional many times, even though I have a different take on supporting Israel than her, she is a deep thinker and great speaker

Chelsea (Man) Handler

Can’t stand her. We met once in 2011 near my home in Hawaii. I was working at the spa at the four seasons Hualalai and I was a new comedian attempting to perform as much as possibly locally. I told her that and gave her a flyer for an upcoming performance. She smiled and said she couldn’t make it because she said she was leaving. She was lying and I found out later that she gave the flyer to hotel management and a few days later was asked to leave and then I was blacklisted from the resort for life. This newest episode with the queen of Jizz shows how her poor taste hasn’t improved. I’m so tired of HELLYWOOD Liars taking all the jobs away from real aspiring talent. Go away you no talent, old, washed-up but dirty unattractive fake blonde…your money will never buy you respect. You’re finished. Nobody likes you. Go have another drink. No Aloha.
