A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I love love love these girls!!!! Not only is history the best subject (in my opinion) but these girls make it feel like you’re on a FaceTime call with them when you’re listening! So funny and witty and smart and insightful! Truly! They do such intense research and are actually passionate about each and every subject and it shows! Keep up the great work! Seriously the best podcast ever I just replay old episodes when there’s nothing new hahaha. And premium has even more fun stories and topics! Everyone go listen 🍸🙌💖

I love these girls! For the most part, I consider myself a Republican but I like to do as Carlos Whitaker advises and “stand with people, not on issues”. And the language is a bit rough for me. I think Claire and Tess are much more intelligent ladies and could use other words. But that’s my only complaint. Oddly, they’ve became my comfort podcast and what I like to listen to before I go to sleep at night. I’ve relistened to several episodes. Always interesting and they always make me laugh.

The only podcast review I’ve ever written bc these girlies are worth it!! RAM is such a genuine and heartwarming community lovingly cultivated by Tess and Claire❤️ they cover such a fun variety of topics and have piqued my interest in so many areas as well as developed my understanding in others. History truly is just gossip and these girls show us this in the most fun and accessible way. Thank you for emotionally supporting me through grad school, the walk to classes would not have been the same without y’all!!!🤩🫢

Long time listener, first time reviewer! Right Answers Mostly was the first Podcast I was ever able to get into. Tess and Claire are funny, witty, and raw. Besides bringing me entertainment they also load me up with fun facts I can spill at the dinner table. They are my favorite part to every Monday with the release of a new episode. You leave every episode feeling like you’re their friend.

Kgodberson · Oct 2024

I actually really enjoy this podcast and listen to new episodes whenever they come out. I do find their political views a bit annoying. And I completely respect that they’re very democratic and everyone can form their own thoughts and views, but they seem to take EVERY opportunity possible to bash conservatives and just men in general. The most recent episode they mentioned wanting to wear a Kamala shirt in LA but were concerned that “they’re everywhere” (Trump supporters I’m assuming ..?). Honestly I find it a bit isolating, as if they don’t even want listeners who don’t 100% align with them. I love hearing the historical stories in a fun way, but it seems a little alienating at times.
