Kristen is a mariposa

Season 2 and 3 of VPR: Tom & Ariana horribly gaslighted you, then started working to turn James on you. They get their karma through you, however. It just takes 10 years to develop. Tom&Kristen to Kristen&James to James&Raquel to Scamdoval.
Love your podcast, congratulations on success of The Valley, you are a beautiful mariposa, don’t ever doubt it✨🦋✨

Gross

Kristin likes to act like she’s grown so much over the years. This is laughable. She loves to judge others and be petty as heck. She should not be recapping VPR since she doesn’t like Lala or James. Her take is pointless. The most recent episode she jokes about how James hasn’t grown up. Which is freaking hilarious because she’s a 40 year old “grown women” still making a fool of herself on TV and judging him. She should also shut up about Lala. Lala is a picture of true growth and change.
So continue being jealous that you’re still no where in life Kristin.

Let Kristen Speak

Love Kristen but I get bad vibes from Luke. He cuts Kristen off whenever HE decides a topic isn’t interesting and wants to move on. I don’t think anyone listens to this podcast because they care what Luke has to say. LET KRISTEN SPEAK!!! The episodes without him and his mansplaining are so much better. Be also makes so many misogynistic comments like “woman in general are meaner than men” 🙄 It’s like every other episode he makes a “most women….” statement and it is making me want to stop listening.

On a positive note, Kristen is an absolute delight and hopefully Luke will eventually be phased out 🤞
