Reid This Reid That

Love the latest pods. I always listen to three early later and most recent. Then I decide if I want more! It’s like sitting with my cousins! I feel like I could be your Asian cousin! Anywho, I’m starting this from the way beginning so I can listen to everything !! Keep going ladies!

I enjoy the podcast. They have a great chemistry and truly feel like cousins. What I can’t understand is the inconsistency in recording. They go weeks without recording, but there is never a heads up they’re taking a break. Lack of consistency makes it a hard podcast to love.

I generally enjoy this podcast and maybe it’s not the forum for challenging guests. But I wanted one of the co-hosts to challenge guest Iyanla Vanzant’s view that one of the reasons people (in the USA I assume) don’t do the work of therapy is laziness. Ms Vanzant has been upheld by Oprah and entertainment media as a credible spiritual and mental health adviser. Her laziness comment lacked the awareness, empathy and skill one would expect from someone who is a counselor, but it does reflect the harshness of USA culture. More importantly, in a context where too many people are overworked, underpaid, not educated about the value of therapy and can’t afford healthcare, podcasts featuring counselors like Vanzant can be so helpful. It’s not the end of the world, but co-hosts, please think about your audience so that when you’re showing respect to your guest, you don’t forget to think about how their words may hurt your audience.

Love the show, love the banter, love the skepticism and all the shade- Yasssss ladies, keep bringing the tea! Love the SHOW!!
