Love the show but Brooke

She talks her mind way to much.

Mcjbabe ,

Too many repeats, otherwise it is good

Previous shows are repeated in ridiculous volume. I feel like I have found the same repeated shows within just one season. I would rather wait longer between releases than hear the same show…even a second time. I do hope the podcast creators reads the constructive criticism and stops repeating the same show. I am waivering on deleting the podcast from my list. The content is interesting to listen to, but only ONE time.

M coffman ,

Non positive review.

I guess you didn’t like my last review and took it down since It doesn’t come up to be edited anymore LOL!!! Didn’t hurt your sensitive feelings.
