I’ve listened weekly for YEARS, typically skipping the interview eps. But the Tuesday pods seem to be getting shorter and more sponsored. I didn’t catch a disclosure (may have missed it) but a recent episode HAD to be an ad for Rhode…it was 15 minutes of talking up their new launches. I get wary anytime this starts happening because the unbiased journalism stops showing up and the pod loses my trust.
Sara and Kirbie- please never stop doing the damn thing. I 1000% agree that beauty and current events / politics are related. Also, it's YOUR SHOW BE WHO YOU ARE! You two helped me make it through the pandemic- you have been advocates for women and evidence based skin care and beauty information from day dot. I trust you and your content! Most of all, your conversations and work-wife hood uplift and inspire me. XO A stan for life, -Jennifer
I’ve been a fan of the podcast since they started. I enjoy the content and it’s fun to keep up with what’s going on in the beauty industry. But, my main issue is that Kirbie talks over Sara constantly, and it sounds like she is yelling into the mic. Many times, Kirbie will speak, Sara will try to add something to the conversation, and Kirbie will immediately talk over Sara and not let her finish. I feel like this is slightly disrespectful to Sara as you both are cohosts and should have equal speaking time. Other than this, I do enjoy the podcast!
This podcast is so helpful and fun! The hosts have amazing chemistry, hilarious banter, and unfiltered takes that keep me laughing and learning. Come for the recs, stay for the fun.
I enjoyed this podcast for a long while. However in the last year or so I have come to the conclusion that this podcast is just not it. Kirby is constantly talking over Sara and comes off as very “my way or the highway”. I could do without all the uninsightful and polarizing political discourse. It is also clear that this podcast comes across as unbiased but is clearly being funded by brands and organizations, so take the advice with a grain of salt as in the end, they are both just selling stuff.
