Sounds Like A Cult

I wish half stars existed so I could give this a 3.5… it’s a decent show and the premise it started out with was great. Over time I’ve realized it’s pretty unpredictable based on the subject, guest, co host etc. (I can’t exactly remember but wasn’t the guest on the army wives episode one of the hosts dad? Random.) Anyway, it’s interesting still and having different co hosts coming in has me continuing to listen, for now.

This used to be one of my favorite shows, but over the past few months it just hasn’t been very good. I’m not sure what happened, but this went from a very funny and informative show to something completely different. Now it’s more of a snark podcast where they pick random topics and mostly insult or make fun of them.

I was so excited to hear their take on Burning Man, which I have attended and enjoyed in all its culty fun for over a decade. And then…. they chose only to interview 2 random women who have never even been, and know nothing about it. So that’s now 4 people who know absolutely nothing about Burning Man, get together to discuss it. You literally worked harder to find a Disney Adult. 80,000 people go to the burn EVERY year and you couldn’t be bothered to find one of them? You could have had an amazing discussion, and instead it was just 4 people sharing their judgements and assumptions without fact checking anything. I’m so done with this podcast, now I’m doubting the research on every other episode.

I just found this podcast because of two girls one ghost and I’m in love! All I have is time to listen to music in podcasts because I’m a mobile dog groomer and I have to say that I binged this podcast so fast. I love hearing intellectual conversations with a mix of silliness. Also really loving Amanda’s other podcast which I will do a review for! Thanks for all your work ladies!
