  • Frustrating

    Had to turn it off. I was really interested in what the guest had to say but the host kept talking over him and wouldn’t let him finish a sentence. Felt like breaking on the freeway every 30 sec. It’s not lunch with the girls, it’s an interview. And her tone made me feel like I was in trouble with my annoyed mother. She needs to give guests some room to speak.

    The basic concept of this podcast is really good but I find the dominating minutiae of Annie and David’s bickering annoying and really detracts from the podcast
