pcknUpwht ,

Kudos!

Love Leah and Scott! I appreciate all the work you do.

One observation, Leah, please stop saying woman when you should say women. I am so confused by why you consistently do this? Surely you know the difference between the two?

Annoyed Allie ,

Good, but…

The excessive use of the word whenever when the correct word is “when” is annoying. If it was occasional, you could possibly ignore, but multiple times in one episode makes me want to just turn it off.

Beya ,

Eh

The cohost is just really cringe and makes me not want to listen to this podcast which is sad because it seems to have a lot of potential. Please drop this guy and you’ll get much further.
