What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Been loving Bingemas with Jodi Walker and think it was the right move to have her helm We’re Obsessed with a rotating cast of cohosts! I’m obsessed with all of her takes, and find her to be a bright light on this feed! Shout out also to the great Juliet Litman, whom I’ve been a huge fan of since the G-land days 💜

SaraW4 · Dec 2024

First, I love Jam Session and Juliet is a gem. Second, this Bingemas miniseries has truly become the highlight of the holidays for me. I look forward to it every week and I’ll be so sad when it’s over. I’ve never seen a Hallmark-style Christmas movie but I don’t need to, Jody (Jodi?) and her guests give me everything I need and more. Thanks for the laughs.

lelahlime · Dec 2024

I started with TeaTime (RIP) and have segued to the rest of the pop culture podcasts - give Jodi Walker all the jobs! She has the personality, the wit, and she does her homework. She shines with great co-hosts, like on Bingemas, and elevates less talented and underprepared ones. I’ll even occasionally listen to the Housewives podcasts to hear her take on news in that universe. Additional shoutout, of course, to Jam Session, the godmother of pop culture podcasts. Seeing Ringer Dish eps in my feed always brightens my day 💕

Moxie24 · Dec 2024

Updated review to say please have Alexis Wilson on every episode of We’re Obsessed. So much fun and personality, laughed out loud to myself while listening. Make her a co-host!! I’ve never heard her before this episode but I would listen every week if she were on!

orange rainbow · Nov 2024

I am a longtime ringer pop culture fan but think I might be done with this one. I am listening to a pop culture podcast to have an escape from the negativity that exists in this world and this does not provide that. I am fine having a different take on something that the host of a podcast I am listening to but feel like Juliet is tearing apart people who like popular things (Taylor Swift, DWTS, etc) I found the way she spoke about Taylor swift on this past episode quite disgusting (again you do not have to be a fan but tearing someone apart with no evidence is pretty hard to listen to) I think I will hang up my hat on this one in search of something more positive.

bachfan1234 · Oct 2024

Somewhat entertaining and I agree that the week with Jodi and Nora was stellar. Strong and informed banter! I was tolerating the incorrect pronunciations for awhile but it is Tim Simons not Tim Simmons.
