ReggaeladayyyNo thank youI used to listen to this show religiously, but Michael got insufferable and with them being Trumpers.. just big yikes. Done with all Dear Media.
-
blueskies1234567These owners of Dear Media promote pseudoscienceAfter i learned that Lauryn and Michael own Dear Media i immediately unsubscibed from all Dear Media pods. These 2 promote false information and make money off it. Some of the worst people in the podcast industry and thats saying a lot. I hope more people follow Molly Sims’ path and quit Dear Media.

Hey1738283Talking over each other and interruptingCan y’all stop talking over each other and let the guest speak? I was listening to the one with Morgan Zanotti and it was honestly unbearable hearing the hosts interrupting her and each other. Would rate negative stars on that podcast episode
-
JN0211Please stop interruptingIt would be so great if the hosts could let the guests finish what they’re saying instead of taking the opportunity to cut them off just to throw in the same irrelevant comments to bring it back to themselves constantly (we get it.. you guys just banter not argue, have known each other since you were 12, Lauryn’s attempt at poorly timed dirty jokes are still stuck at that 12yr old level, and Michael’s a QUARTER Japanese and always thinks he’s gonna “get in trouble”). You don’t always have to take the opportunity to address these critiques on air, just stop doing it and let your guests and their stories and knowledge have the floor. I’ve been listening since they were recording in their dining room, and will continue to because I absolutely love the guests they bring, but the incessant interruptions and cringey jokes has really made it frustrating to get through.

Arf4343Inane , dimwitsDoesn’t know who Netenyahu is. Turned off Bill Maher’s show immediately I could care one iota what this dimwit and her simp “think” about.
-
Sas56978975Zip it 🤐For the love of god, please quit interrupting your guests. It’s every time they’re trying to tell a story, or getting to the punchline of a joke, you guys cut them off. Michael- CALM DOWN. You’re like a hyperactive kid that can’t shut up 🤫
-
Justice for sprinklesTHE OFFICE EPISODELauren’s lack of research & know it all approach is painful to listen to. Lauren should take the back seat on all interviews and Michael needs to take the lead moving forward…
-
HMCagle25Can you BE any more whiney?This dude 🤦🏼♀️😆 the “delivery” is important when informing the public they’re literally poisoning us. On purpose. WHAT. Beta male who must be drinking the water. Alex Clark got a new follower and I’m done with this show. Man up. We have a country to save!
-
Sydney A. .Wanted to like itThe individuals they interview are really cool and I was recommended the podcast by Alex Clark at Culture Apothocary, but they unnecessarily throw out many f-bombs which are really off-putting and the two hosts interrupt and talk over each other a lot which is annoying to listen to. I’m sure it doesn’t bother many other people, but unfortunately it’s just not my style.
-
kaitie17Love this podcast funny and educationalI love this podcast. First of all the wife husband combo cracks me up but also helps give a mans perspective. What I really love is how Lauren shares everything I have listened to podcasts where u can tell they are only sharing sponsored items. Lauren legitimately tells you her meal plans, life styles, skin routines, and workouts for free! I have tried several things she’s recommended not one item was not worth it. Thanks Lauren I really love this podcast and it’s helped me a ton I love my gigi crackers and Cali’flour pizzas!
-
lisa_katee“Trump is the pop culture President”???You just lost all credibility by entertaining Alex Clark. The fact that she started by giggling like a 10 year old because she met Trump and told him to “keep talking about big food” is a joke. Have you seen him? We’re you here for his 4 yrs in office? This is dangerous! You just lost a listener.
-
clairepurn1Listener since 2016!LOVED DR. SHANNON!!! So knowledgeable and amazing at translating her information to be digestible. I have listened to Lauryn and Michael since 2016 and I still tune in every single week. The amount of work their whole team puts into creating 3 incredibly interesting, well edited and produced and entertaining conversations with such a wide variety of guests is crazy. Thank you for your commitment to your craft and your listeners! 🩷 also dead at the josh peck episode and the meat bowl of it all.
-
mollyw1993Podcast endorsementsI think the podcast used to be better. Most of the guests are just pushing a product so it seems too salesy now

Scooching in HereTerrible people on a terrible podCannot support grifters
-
eyozampAlex Clark episodeThis is one of the most interesting interviews I’ve ever listened to! Alex is so open minded, yet constant and confident in the way she holds to her beliefs. The way she communicates is so refreshing!
-
eminikki101Alex Clark EpisodeThe Alex Clark episode was absolutely whack. Radical Christian Conservatives are absolutely batsh*t crazy. I’m obsessed with this podcast but hated that episode. Obviously, I love that they have people from all different walks of life on to give different perspectives. Just my opinion on that episode. Everything else Lauryn and Michael do i love love love!!!!
-
fightingnewspeakLove Alex ClarkThank you for hosting such a wide variety of guests!!
-
mzouraMore solo episodes please!They have interesting guests on but I’ve been enjoying their solo episodes more lately
-
Smurfaloompus=]Alex Clark episodeThe wet blankets in the comments are so boring. This was such a unique episode and extremely interesting. She loved T Swift but wants to homeschool her kids and loves Trump. Into fashion but drinks raw milk. Busting every assumption and stereotype on conservatives. I learned modern conservatives are more nuanced and layered than we would think. Upbeat, juicy, and feel good episode!
-
JoJo_AndersonAlex Clark episode 10/10So good, I hadn’t listened in awhile but when I saw Alex was coming on I had to listen. I appreciate this kind of conversation and how it’s not all one sided but rather just good conversation!
-
Brittany_joeQuality podThe negative reviews here are based on political views rather than the quality of this podcast. This podcast is very professional and well done. I’ve been listening for years. Of course there are POV I disagree with, and I love that for me. This is a well rounded experience - give it a try if you haven’t yet!
-
Alexandra Wing10/10Love where this podcast is headed. Alex was a great guest and overall you guys have been covering some amazing topics. Keep up the great work!
-
upup83I can’t anymoreI can’t listen to this show anymore. These two are so tone deaf and shill products on the show constantly. What started as an interesting podcast as evolved into two narcissists that love listening to themselves tell us all how to be. They lack any kind of “realness” that used to be appealing and advertise products they would NEVER use on the show. Greed has changed the show and I will be unfollowing.
-
Emm.boydTSC the ultimate all you need podcast!I’ve been a listener from day 1 and will always be my favorite go to pod! From the product recommendations to the amazing interviews and people they bring on from all perspectives- I keep coming back craving more. Thank y’all so much for all you put into this podcast and all that I’ve gotten out of every episode! 10/10

OG Listener69Dangerous MisinformationAlex Clark is a lunatic. Spewing dangerous propaganda. You should be ashamed of yourself.
-
justapersonwholikespodsEhhhh?Some episodes are super insightful with intelligent, well informed guests who are respected in their field. Others are a joke with conspiracy theorists who peddle dangerous and inaccurate information. A mixed bag, but overall the show lacks accountability for the size of its platform. More research should be done before giving anyone a mic to spew their often totally unhinged opinions. They spin it as “showing all sides of whatever” but it’s become a stage for lots of people who really don’t deserve one. Also the ads are super long. Like 5-6 minutes every 20 minutes long.
-
appleamandaGreat job hosting Alex ClarkeI thought you were both incredibly skilled at moderating the content from Alex Clark. Her ideas and opinions were extreme at times, but I thought you did a great job putting things into perspective, not taking sides, and presenting alternate views.
-
magstermEducated guestsWho is Alex and how does she have so many advanced degrees in public health AND education AND big pharma? Quite impressive! GOALZZZZ
-
CBDON2Certified ClickBaitI used to love following Lauren and the Skinny Confidential as she was always honest and giving hot takes on everything from pop culture to beauty products. Now every episode seems to focus on extremist positions so they can get some sort of shock value out of it and get more clicks and comments.
-
💗💗C💗💗DangerousMichael and Lauryn are FOOLS and their conservative ideology is dangerous and moronic.
-
CPT Ground ControlUh brother uh. So cringe, out of touch, and money grubbingUsed to love this show. But they are bringing on “experts” that have shockingly limited experience and expertise. I have listened as episodes unironically run headfirst into promoting conspiracy theories (on both sides) while simultaneously hawking so many of the products and services that are part and parcel of those same systems, ingredients, and issues. I miss the days when this show shared helpful information and conversations with real subject matter experts instead of clinging to big, extreme media personalities to create an unhinged, rich people gospel. Unfollow as irrelevant.

Jbx2!“Ivy League schools don’t look at public school kids”Latest blog - Alex Clark - she said “ Ivy League schools aren’t looking at public school kids” in her commentary/ rant on homeschooling. Comments like this make her Uncredible - she sounds unintelligent on the issue of education. Also, this taints the rest of the episode and makes me question this podcast, which I do listen to regularly, which is why I didn’t give it a star. I live in New England and I can assure you that kids in MA and CT who attend top public school go to Ivy League. Just pull the stats. Not hard to verify the actual truth. Please choose guests with a broader perspective than speaking in black and white extremes. She sounds crazy and again, these are important conversations that require discourse steeped in facts not uneducated opinions / rants. Your guest speakers matter.
-
KristinbeezThank you MichaelI almost turned todays podcast off when Alex was spewing about gay frogs…but Michael you were so articulate in your response to her…I agreed with everything you said…eventually I had to turn her off though. I do believe there are a lot of truths behind some of what she says but she’s also spreading many things that are untrue in her extremist beliefs. It’s a shame. I’m open to learning about some of these topics but get so turned off by how people like Alex present them.
-
Zekehan15Trump???Ew you lost me at Trump. Zero stars.
-
Target_luvrFacts and FUN!The authenticity is fkin amazing! I love listening to a podcast that is relatable and REAL and you guys are exactly that. “I want to be felt up before getting FKED for the day!” GIRRLLLL! You give your audience really valuable information that is Jam Packed with facts and fun! Thank you both for being so raw and fun, but for also providing us with insight into so many of life’s questions.
-
*Bella23*Don’t think I can listen anymore….The privilege on display is overwhelming. It’s unrelatable information for the most part and off putting. Listening to Lauryn’s “life changing” hacks is kind of laughable because many of those are items you sell. It just doesn’t feel genuine.
-
laurdeteThey don’t pretend to be anything they’re not.I’m honestly surprised by some of the negative reviews here and if you read closely, most lack any constructive criticism or valuable and applicable feedback. I’m a longtime listener of TSC and for good reason — they are who they say they are and they own their truth, even if that means owning how they’ve changed and evolved as human beings. Which is great because that shows growth and humanity and a relatable quality that a lot of people lack. If you’ve been with a podcast long enough and haven’t seen growth, I think that’s a red flag. Lauryn and Michael have always been honest about why they’ve sought change in their lives (moving, shifting opinions on certain subjects etc.) and I think it’s vulnerable and authentic. Not to mention the name-power in guests they continue to have on and valuable topics they continue to discuss, even if they’re not always popular. Some may not like it or always agree but I think that’s the point — they remain genuine and committed to their passion and truth despite outside influences that may not always offer the same.

Shaina PainterUsed to be a Huge TSC fan.. now it’s toughListening to Lauryn and Michael for YEARS has been a journey.. they’ve evolved and changed in both positive & negative ways but somehow always kept me engaged. Recently, I’ve noticed a huge shift in the podcast, specifically the focus being from helping the audience and providing insightful conversations to inserting jabs at Michael, poking fun at their relationship and simply overall focusing on them in their own lives and as podcast hosts. I was overjoyed to see a podcast episode episode with kKourtney Kardashian Barker, but to my dismay, the entire episode felt so disconnected. It appeared Kourtney (& Simon!) supplied a very authentic and real conversation, where Michael and Lauryn met them with superficial, inauthentic, trying to be funny / garner the attention of a celebrity, without real substance. I highly recommend Michael and Lauryn really review their expression of of this podcast before it starts to lose many valuable listeners. Pretty sure they won’t with how much they have discussed that they do not integrate feedback or criticisms, but I think it’s about time for some self reflection.

Bippityboppity booHaters gonna hateNever realized how much hate they got before reading these negative reviews! I’ll simply say that this podcast changed my life for the better in so many ways. Through interviews with their guests I have learned so many tips and tricks to really thrive. So what if they’re privileged??? Or like to say Michales a quarter Japanese? Or even if they support trump? They don’t talk about it or rub it in your face (IF it’s even true). People need to unbunch their panties and quit hatin’. Put your energy into something that actually matters
-
robar1Use To LoveBefore Deer Media, they were much more relatable. Then they moved to Texas and became way to MAGA, spreading dangerous info. I just read people pay 40K to be on this show. I really hope that isn’t true.
-
TiffkinderMediumAn episode on a medium? Really? I’m surprised by this because all of your other context is super informative and interesting. This just seems like a filler-def not interested ✌🏻
-
mrg1022Good and badPodcast is able to score valuable great guests. But Lauren is extraordinarily stupid. She asks shallow questions, does very little preparation, makes horrible jokes and useless throw away comments. Michael is a decent interviewer
-
Syd90422Love but HateLet me start by saying that I LOVE this podcast and have been listening for years. Recently though, I have gripe that I hope others can understand. The smart water and tea ads are ridiculous. Anyone who is somewhat health conscious and understands basic consumerism knows that Lauryn and Michael are not drinking smart water or drinking the tea Lauryn is trying to sell us in the ads. Yuck! I would never drink that poison. The rest of the content is great, but please don’t think we are stupid enough to buy into that. Come on.
-
AshleyBOrlandoSame old same oldI used to love this pod but anymore it’s always the same thing and all this fake science and chiropractors being interviewed that push this clean meat and holistic living will solve all your problems. And Lauren doesn’t seem to realize how incredibly privileged she is. Most women literally dont have the time or money for the type of morning routine and diet she follows.
-
QuarterjapaneseruuuudeQuarter Japanese .. so annoyedI stopped listening to this pod back when Lauren posted her photoshopped fat phobic pic. Then I came back because I really enjoy the guests they have. But if I have to hear Lauren say “he’s a quarter Japanese” again… beyond cringey, offensive, and borderline racist. That has nothing to do with how he does his hair, his business, his skin, etc.You also went from a stance of” semaglutide is for lazy people” to sponsoring brands that provide it, and getting air sculpt. Hypocritical.
-
kristinrc04I will give her this…Lauren is great at interviewing. I love the questions she answers and I loved the gusts before they got to Hollywood celebrity about it. What I can’t stand is Lauren continues to talk about negative effects of filler, how meat helped her lose weight along with using weights however she posts about eating McDonald’s French fries, which if you didn’t know the seed oil from that stays in your body for 2 weeks. Her face is filled with filler and Botox, their is proof online she photoshops her body. There is nothing worse than someone preaching one thing and doing the other. I wish she would be her real self and not put on this facade. We aren’t here for the fake boobs, fake face, fake body we are here for her interviewing skills so please be real.
-
Steffis reviewThe are MAGAI have listened to this a few times, but then I found out they were huge Trump supporters and I can’t be a part of that.
-
MatuszewskiPretty goodI love this podcast and they bring a lot of great guests on the show as I have learned a lot. However, Lauryn likes to make a lot of the podcast interviews about herself and it shows her privilege. I wish sometimes she would just let the interviewers talk.
-
Jazzy113456789TerribleWow what a terrible podcast. I was drawn to it by Peter A and actually shocked that he agreed to interview with these incredibly shallow jokers.
