Customer Reviews
Perfection!
I love everything about this podcast! I don’t even fast forward through the ads and that’s saying a lot! All three host are wonderful but Saeed is like a soothing balm healing my spirit. Every time he speaks I feel the cortisol leaving my body🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Keep doing what you do, it is a gift to us all.
P.S. Parent privilege is real and I agree with everything Sam said!
New favorite podcast
Some podcasts are too good to be true and this is one of them. You get news, culture, friendship and chuckles all in one. Thank y’all for this podcast.
Longtime Listener, First time Unfollwing
I’ve been listening to Vibe Check since it launched and the most recent episode (Give Us the Wheel, July 10) completely turned me off of the show. This show constantly preaches about “community” and the importance of supporting one another and showing up. Hearing Sam Sanders go on a tirade about being inconvenienced by children he encounters when traveling on vacation was completely hypocritical and in fact anti-community. Supporting community, especially looking out for children that are not yours, is something you should do all the time, not just when it’s convenient.
