What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Bridget proves what we saw on the show to begin with which is that she is jealous and insecure. All she does is talk about Kendra! Every single podcast episode is about how Kendra got all the attention and Bridget got a bad edit, how unfair the show was to Bridget, etc. Holly does a better job of not personalizing everything and, as on the show, is the voice of reason. Great podcast though for anyone who liked the show and wants to know more about the production aspect.

I could listen to the two of you talk about any topic under the sun. I listen to your individual podcasts faithfully, but the two of you are fantastic together. Please don’t stop.

SusieAdeline · Jul 2026

I love the show and even have a patreon membership. I am BEGGING that they get a legitimate audio engineer. The girls and their interviewees are sometimes at different volumes. Commercials are way louder or even softer than the show volume. I’ll listen anyway but my goodness the quality control aint it

Jackie_BBB · May 2026

I got sucked into Holly and Bridget’s world after they appeared on the CHD podcast a couple years back! They have a story to tell, but that is just the backdrop for their content. As hosts, their personalities are so complimentary, their friendship is fun to watch, and I find their content very relatable and comforting. They deal with a lot of hate coming at them, and truly they are and always have been two beautiful, strong women. The haters who come on here specifically to rate low need to just click off, it’s not that deep. They are real people, not robot puppet performers. Stop making them self-conscious of their content and general existence. Their podcast career will continue beyond the last episodes of GNL, if they so choose, and I’m here for it.

CasElizabethan · Dec 2024

What an awful moment it was in the latest episode with Sarah Underwood, when she talked about her pictorial being set in a little girls bedroom. She also noted that she looked young. It was upsetting that given present day headlines, that story passed without being commented on by the hosts. There were other gross stories about Hefs behavior and the recruiters for Playboy that were shared, and Holly enthused “cool!” at one point. It made me feel icky. I loved listening to this but I think it’s time to stop glamorizing the playboy culture. I hope these gals are able to get some trauma informed therapy🫶🏼

Youappear · Apr 2026

I was a huge fan of the show during my youth, and while I have enjoyed many of the recaps, certain aspects have begun to bother me. Bridget’s hostility towards Hef’s receptionist at the nightclub upset me because I doubt it was the receptionist who wasn't letting her see Hef. Also, the way she speaks about Kayla is mean-spirited, but she also refers to her as a friend. Finally, I wish the girls would stop talking about Crystal. If Holly can share her truth, then so can she.
