I really enjoyed this but the sound kept going in and out and clicking like a loose connection. Was that just my experience?

Same problem! The content is great but the sound quality was really distracting and hard to listen to

I’m loving this podcast option without the pressure of it being it an actual podcast! Also, i wonder if Mariah requires her hires to be OK with working while on rollercoasters, or other adrenaline-boosting activities? I mean, it is a pretty cool thing to add on your resume. I love Mariah & Dolly’s commitment to diva—thanks for validating it 🫶🏽

Also yes—praying for the end of celebrity beauty brands 🙏🏽

it should be available right under our bylines at the top of this post, on the righthand side there's a button that says "transcript." hope that helps!

Emily’s voice kept going in and out. Perhaps she wasn’t talking directly into the mic? It usually happened when she first started talking so we missed the beginning word or two of her responses. Enjoyed it otherwise!

I just had this idea for an article I don’t have the capacity right now to write: “Men go to war but women put acid on their faces! How the Skincare industry convinced women to incorporate chemical exfoliation into their “skincare” routine!”

I started a podcast this year and it's fun to pay attention to my and guest's segueway words. People have their favorites unconsciously. I go back and forth with how much I edit it out lol.
