Customer Reviews
Great productivity and life organization podcast
Really enjoying the podcast, great job Rosemary and Scotty. One comment, there has been major feedback noise on Scotty’s microphone. Looking forward to where you two take this.
My people!
Ep 73 was auto-suggested to me yesterday. Never heard this podcast before; wasn’t aware it existed. The “frictionless” topic was interesting so I clicked on it. Within just a few minutes, I thought “these are my people!”. I have found them! Funny that the hosts were describing their own challenges in organization and I found myself saying “me too” often. I loved that episode! Now to binge on more of them.
Sponsored episodes are the worst!
2-part episodes sponsored by a company where the hosts explain why they use a particular product ( that is paying them to say what they are saying). I don’t mind ads and hosts endorsing a product, but multiple episodes are a complete waste of my time. If you want to hear a infomercial for these products, dig right in. I’m unsubscribing.
