I do! But if there is ever a Taylor Swift fashion tangent again I will give you guys a one star rating. Nora, please. You are already a bit too pretentious as it is.

Sometimes fun insight, but jfc you can tell their hands are in the success of pop stars bc they love bending over backwards at double time to defend every single thing they do. The recent Chappell Roan ep was just a huge “ok girl, come one now” for me.
Thoughtful discussion with constant interruptions

Sometimes there is insightful and interesting takes on the music, but the two hosts also interrupt and talk over each other a LOT, which is not only extremely irritating, but difficult to hear. Please stop talking over each other, I’m begging!
Doing backbends to defend Chappell roan every week

I genuinely liked the podcast but it feels like payola or clout chasing at this point. I know Nathan works in the industry but i dont want to listen to a podcast we’re someone’s such a kiss up because of the politics of the industry
