The reads hurt.

So I went into this thinking I was a 9 based off getting INFP originally. Well I’ve recently gotten INTJ and let’s just say the read for 5 HURT YA BOYS SPIRIT. Guess ima 5. Love the show can’t wait for more. I should give y’all 1 star for the read and being drug but hey, it was perfection delivered by another 5.

Fictional Fun with Personality Profiles

Lots of fun through a look at both real people and Fictional Characters through Personality Profiles. The conversation ping-pongs between the hosts with energy, intelligence and humor.

Never been so happy to get dragged

I’m not always 100% sure I believe in personality tests, but when I heard the episode on fours I was elevated and entertained (and maybe a little bit offended) about how on point the enneagram seems to be, and the MBTI is FINALLY STARTING TO MAKE SENSE thank you Connie!!!! What’s more is that Connie and Delia do it through the lens of some of our favorite characters, and thereby letting us see how the connections we make with them can be more than just fun, but are something rooted in our inner selves. Would give this podcast ten stars if I could!
