I feel like you’re the perfect person to catch my drift on this! I need to say I also love Taylor swift, I’m not a hater. But I feel like I just had a revelation about her. she obviously loves the attention and needed to have this wedding before her and Travis’s spotlight began to dim. Also, MSG lol love her but WE SEE YOU. Also need to say, I love your podcast so much. You were my fav on vpr since day 1, I saw that you were right and your friends kinda sucked. I’ve been listening to your podcast here since 2017 and subscribed on Patreon since 2020. AND I LOVE AND ENJOY TAYLOR! People are mean (losers!), you both rock.

I love this show so much. I liked when Taylor was on periodically to share her opinions. However, I can’t listen like I use to bc she gives me a panic attack. I wish I could hug her and tell her it’s ok. Take a deep breath, you don’t have to rush through everything and scream all the time. Taylor is entertaining and has good viewpoints but her manic speaking is too much for me. Maybe eat a gummy before recording.

I’m a HUGE Stassi and Tay fan! I’ve listened to both of them for ever and I want so badly to love them together. One note is think they need more structure, a point to the episode. I feel like every conversation is about how jealous Tay is or how she’s missing out or how yalls friendship is.. it’s kinda like Stassi with the captions.. if you have to talk about it this much is it really a friendship?(and I know it is real so that’s why I’m giving feed back!!!) Another note is we harp on a topic for too long.. I don’t want to sit and listen to you talk about captions for 30 minutes (that’s dramatic but just an example) I love you both soo much!! Make find some segments to do instead of girly chit chat!!

I had to come here and leave a review. lol “it’s a beautiful human centipede of fandom and I’m here for it.” - Taylor in the latest episode….. you are both short poetry iconnnnsssss imo. 😭😭♥️♥️☠️☠️ listener since episode one. Love love love it all.

Hi, still can’t stand Taylor’s extremely shrill voice dominating every episode. Don’t mean to be rude but we don’t come to hear Taylor’s opinion. Go solo Stass.

I love your show. I have all your books and met you once where you signed my book and shared who did your breast reduction. I went to the same surgeon. I started listening to your podcast only on pop culture days and then grew from there and I love Taylor. Listening to your current show and I think A&W’s affair started way earlier, pre summer. Kyle said that Amanda had been spending more time with West prior to summer. Also, Amanda getting mad at West for making out w/ that girl claiming it was for Ciara was over the top (Kyle even called her out) and what about when she says, “look at my butt?” No one acts that way unless they’ve already hooked up.

The podcast has taken a serious turn since late April. I don’t mind hearing about S’s professional life, but when it becomes 90% of the show, it turns to propaganda/ad world. I cannot listen to conspiracy theories for this long. I know that’s Stassi’s thing, but how much can we discuss this before it’s repetitive and boring mindless banter. I tuned into Stassi bc I liked her takes and banter, not just talking about herself (projects) with someone else. I like chat about anything pop-culture, fashion, body/face improvement focused,life/mom/dad life, That chat is boring and not relatable since there’s no elaborating on the juicy stuff. Neutral takes on people/situations, or “I’ll tell you later” moments are frustrating. The ref of certain friends can be dangerous/alienating (toast)… speaking of that… the lukewarm sociopolitical takes and mention of S Pratt, but not being sure which side he’s for? Like how are you claiming to support underserved communities, but seemingly ill informed about your own local politics? I get it, but also you have a major platform so maybe just stray away from those topics?? Or realize it is weaved into every fabric of society (Lesbian co host!!) and educate yourself. And yeah you love her and her wife, that means nothing if you don’t show support to the community! It’s giving “I have a black friend”. This show won’t succeed if the substance isn’t changed. I looked forward to hearing this every week & now not so much.

You need to look up the recent stuff with David Grusch. There’s a plethora of non human life that ranges from bipedal biologics to sentient plasma that our government is aware of. 🔮

Sadly I have to agree with the other reviews. I do love Stassi and tay both as podcasters, but Tay is overpowering the conversation. I miss Lo and the other guests that stassi had on. I disagree with the feedback that Taylor is too nice to stassi, because if she was too nice she would let her talk on her own podcast more.

I’m so disappointed on the direction of this podcast. I have always been a fan of Stassi and was so excited her career has turned around as it should have. But every week Tay dominates conversation, constantly interrupts Stassi and makes the everything about Tay herself. I find myself fast forwarding when Tay is speaking so I can finally hear from Stassi. Isn’t this podcast supposed to be about Stassi? Does Tay ever shut up? Tay is this annoying, loud distraction that seems to get worse each week.

I really hope all of this feedback is taken seriously and Stassi realizes she needs to go back to solo podcasting. I think it’s been made abundantly clear the dynamic is not only not working, it’s grating. I hope the Hulu show is as successful as they think it will be, but even if it is, this podcast needs to change. I’m actually embarrassed for Taylor, and I’m sensing her incessant fangirling is making Stassi uncomfortable, too. Lo has to see it too, even outside the reviews. They addressed it in the recent episode, and as predicted, Taylor couldn’t just take it in, she had to make it an issue every chance she could. I feel like they have to be careful around her or she’ll have a meltdown. I don’t know their dynamic off the mic, but if it’s like this, it has to make Beau and Taylor’s wife uncomfortable or annoyed too. And I wish they’d realize how off-putting all the teasers, inside jokes, and “I’ll tell you later” comments are. I’m sure it’s not easy mixing friendship and business like this, but I don’t think both can be successful together in this case. Tough decision for Stassi, I’m sure. But until she makes it, I can’t listen anymore.

I feel like the show isn’t working because you guys are too much of best friends, and it’s keeping you from being effective cohosts. 1) Your everyday conversations must be Taylor talking 80% of the time, but this does not work for us who want to hear STASSI. 2) Taylor naturally talks and moves VERY fast. She cuts Stassi off INCESSANTLY. This dynamic clearly works for their friendship somehow, but for us who never get to hear Stas finish her thoughts or stories, for the entirety of every podcast, it’s so frustrating!!! I feel like I’m going mad😵‍💫 3) BFFs can talk endlessly about anything right? Ok but your latest Summer House talk (which we’ve already talked about in past episodes keep in mind) was 25 minutes!🤯 Dragging out one topic to a point where it’s boring and repetitive has been a recurring theme on this podcast. I miss listening to Stassi covering many different topics throughout an episode, it was fun and engaging. But the large majority of this podcast is a very uninteresting listen now😭 Please, it’s never too late to go back to your old format or pick a different cohost. We beg of you Stas as long time fans, to reconsider this move.

Hey soooo The Toast girls are who you can blame for hate towards LGBTQ+ among republicans going up!! Try holding your girly swilrlys accountable instead of your very liberal audience who hates hearing yall spewed their nonsense (see: Spencer Pratt). Loser behavior.

I found this on Netflix’s podcast rollout and am obsessed. Being able to peek into this friendship, the dynamic of life changes in friendship, the hype girl friend, the trend setter friend. I’m just so in love with both Stassi and Taylor and am now commenting “our inside jokes” on their instagram posts. Fully fan girling as a 37 year old mom of 2 toddlers!

This makes me sad to write, but it also makes me sad to no longer enjoy your podcast. I have supported Stassi, and have enjoyed her podcast for years. I am not excited for new episodes anymore and usually shut off Stassi with Tay, because I do not enjoy Tay. Why??? I lost my favorite podcast and I am sad about it. Tay every episode dominating the conversation is just not my vibe. All we talk about is what Tay leads and even when Stassi tries to lead we have Tay dominating again, it’s exhausting. She laughs so loud, and is so vocal. It’s not chic to yell, I am chic today!!!!!!! Please fix this so the podcast is not 85% Tay anymore, I hate it, thanks.

This was my favorite podcast when it was just Stassi and Lo. I don’t enjoy Tay, she ages this podcast. Please go back to just Stassi. The latest episode was too much bestie talk that isn’t very engaging for an audience. I miss just Stassi😔

Love Stassi! I have followed her for years since VPR and loved her original podcast. I am stopping due to the new co-host. If I was interested in Taylor I would have listened to her podcast, but NO. This was my favorite podcast for years and I am really sad.

Stassi is one of the most beautiful women in the world. Seriously. She absolutely KILLED IT on the runway. No notes. Taylor is clearly your biggest fan 🥴 She dominates the podcast now. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The episode where Taylor said she wanted to be Stassi’s coat hanger was just too much for me.

Long time listener, big time Stassi fan (literally named my daughter after her), but I just cannot with Taylor. Her voice, her absolute fan-girling over Stassi constantly. Can’t do it. Hope to come back in the future.

Having someone blow smoke up stassis butt for the entire podcast is so mehhhhh.

I love stassi and I love Taylor. I was initially so excited for this podcast because I’ve always enjoyed their pop culture episodes. HOWEVER every episode has turned into Taylor fan girling and obsessing over stassi. It’s making me like her less it’s honestly really uncomfortable to listen to. They also talk about nothing. I think it needs more structure…since it’s a once a week podcast why not just discuss pop culture as well as their personal lives? It’s just really not good right now and someone needs to tell Taylor to stop with the stassi compliments.

Stassi’s podcast is genuinely good to listen to — the energy, the supportive female friend conversations, the pop‑culture spirals, all of it. That’s what originally made it such an easy, entertaining go‑to. Lately, though, the dynamic has shifted. The episodes have started to feel a bit one‑note, with so much of the conversation centered on Taylor praising Stassi and expressing her admiration over and over. We get it — Taylor you adore Stassi — but the constant emphasis is starting to feel a little over the top and repetitive. What got Taylor to the podcast world is not coming through. The show shines brightest when the conversations are more balanced, playful, and wide‑ranging. I’d love to see it return to entertaining, varied discussions that made the podcast feel effortless. Still a great listen — just hoping for a little more of the old show back.

It’s crushing my soul to leave only 2 stars, as a big Stassi fan and a The Good The Bad subscriber. This podcast should be called “TAY! (with stassi)”. Taylor absolutely DOMINATES this podcast- 80% is her very aggressively screeching into the mic, she legit grabs the mic and puts it to her lips and scream talks? This used to be my comfort Podcast but I literally need to stop it and take pause breaks because I feel so anxious listening to it, Taylor is SO much! She is a lovely person but I feel so so overstimulated listening to this that I have to listen in increments, that’s insane! And you guys don’t talk about anything with substance? It’s just two friends being chatty and ‘catching up’ but it doesn’t translate well to a listener; some very surface level subjects get dragged on for like 25min+. I listen to the entire podcast and think “I’ve learned nothing about Stassi” on her OWN podcast. Stassi- PLEASE lead this podcast and talk the most, we are YOUR fans. Your episodes with Lo were great, you used to lead the conversation and talk the most and Lo would just chime in with her thoughts here and there and it was a great and entertaining (and calming) listen😢 I beg of you to consider the constructive criticism of all these reviews. Love you!

Long time listener and love love love, just kindly asking to reduce the weight watchers campaign convo ad from 10 minutes to like two. Thanks!

Stassi please please save your show. Taylor makes the podcast unlistenable. I used to LOVE this podcast and looked forward to every episode, but ever since Taylor became part of it, it has completely changed for the worse. Her voice is honestly nails on a chalkboard, and the conversations are the exact same thing every single week. It isn’t WORKING!

I’ve liked their dynamic when I’ve casually listened in the past, but it feels like Taylor is always shocked that stassi will be friends with her or something? I don’t know if this is how your friendship dynamic is offline but as an on and off listener for a couple years, it’s starting to feel likeeeee weird. I’m guessing this is intentional with the show being “STASSI (all caps) with Tay” with a photo of Taylor laughing, looking behind her, but I have to say this is kinda weird to see adults act like a real sidekick and queen bee.

I used to listen to this podcast first thing on Wed mornings, but now that Taylor is always on it just seems like we keep trying to make fetch happen. She is good once in a while or with an outline or focused conversation, but all the time, causal chatting, it is hard to listen.

I used to be a regular listener. I would routinely binge old episodes (circa 2020). I love listening to Stassi talk. She could read the phone book and I would be glued to my phone, listening intently. Unfortunately, I cannot listen to episodes with Taylor. I am not here to hate on her voice or other things that people seem to have an issue with. Please consider giving the people what they want - it’s not Tay. 😭. And backing Spencer Pratt? Are you joking??

Tried to give this podcast another listen but turned it off after 20 min and unsubscribed. Terrible. No substance; listening to Taylor worship Stassi and saying how they are best friends over and over is not entertaining. Big mistake IMO to pair weekly with Taylor. I am sure she is a nice girl but too much of a fan girl and they talk about nothing over and over

Used to love-even the pop culture episode with Taylor- but the episodes now are just Taylor expressing how obsessed she is with stassi now and there’s no conversation. It is okay to not like or agree with everything stassi says and does. I think Taylor is very intelligent but it does not come across in this and stassi was much more likable until the change.

I used to love this podcast and looked forward to it every week. Unfortunately, since Taylor joined, I’ve found it really difficult to listen. The constant praise and overall dynamic just don’t work for me, and it takes away from what I originally loved about the show. It’s disappointing because Stassi’s solo episodes (and episodes with Lo and Alex) were always my favorites. I’d love to see more of that format again.

This has been my fav podcast for so long but now I can’t get through an episode with Taylor. There are no more topics discussed it’s just inside jokes and repeating the same stories like they’re just doing the podcast to catch up with each other. I can’t take her voice either. We are here for Stassi not Taylor and want exciting guests back on and new topics.

I had to LITERALLY stop listening as soon as you and Taylor started talking about how amazing you think Spencer Pratt is. He’s a grifter. You both are intelligent women do some research. I couldn’t believe you were basically endorsing Spencer Pratt. Wild too about Taylor loving the idea of him as the Mayor when he stated before that he studied Trump for years and is basically running his campaign the same way as Trump when this administration wants to take away her rights. Praising Spencer is crazy work. Ask his sister who he assaulted and drugged or Ashley Olsen whom he sold underage pics of, or the 10 million he blew because he thought we were going to have a Mayan apocalypse. He never purchased fire insurance when buying his home in a fire hazard neighborhood and got upset he didn’t get the payout he wanted. He lives in a home in Santa Barbara that his parents own and he placed a trailer on his burnt property so he can legally run. Do research. Spencer being nice to a pretty white girl….What a shocker.

Have been loving her podcast with Beau also! But, having her doing girl talk is the best! Taylor is my bf that I have only met once lol..good choice having her on as a regular. Love yalls friendship!!

Lo, I know you’re well informed on politics. Can you please explain to Stassi that Spencer Pratt is not a good candidate, and that we don’t need someone from entertainment in politics. We need someone that’s for the ppl. He’s a lunatic and does not need to be in charge of the public

Taylor is exhausting and annoying to listen to. I'm so happy Taylor has her own podcast and glad she has that audience but the mix isn't working.

I’m someone who was weary of stassi post her vpr scandal. I softened up to her recently. Unfortunately she has not grown. Spencer Pratt running for mayor is not it

What has happened to this podcast. Today’s episode especially was literally no content except random worries about the upcoming show and watching yourself on tv and being able to franchise the show eventually? How is any of this relatable or interesting. There’s nothing new or fresh going on except a tornado algorithm update? Please bring new guests this has gotten so repetitive and boring.

This was my comfort show. Tay has ruined it for me. Her cadence is loud and aggressive and worse: sycophantic & needy and screechy. Doesn’t add anything interesting or new. Just cringe. Ugh. I want to listen to the episodes. I start to listen and give up after 10 min can’t stand it. It’s almost like wanting to be outside on a beautiful day but loud noise of leaf blower so you go inside close all the windows. Stassi: please for the love of God go back to your original format.

Tay is way too much and takes away from the podcast immensely. Give Stassi the mic back 100%. That’s why we are all here!

I’d love to listen but the lip smacking from Taylor is awful. Please try to stop

I miss the Stassi podcast when there were actually topics. Stassi with Tay has delivered us nothing. They are repeating so many stories and recycling topics. Taylor never stops cutting Stassi off when she is talking. They both sound miserable about parenting at best but at worst it is just so not entertaining. I’m so disappointed Stassi podcast had to go away and it got replaced with THIS hot garbage

I like the podcasts with Stassi, and most guests. I love the one with Beau bc they have more structure and focus. I hate the ones with Taylor. She’s just too over the top and too screech-y and loud. Sadly I like hearing about her life (I don’t dislike her), but she just sounds so forced and too much. I’d love to hear more focused podcasts- fashion, beauty, travel, guests, etc. Edit- now that Tay is regular, I just find myself skipping. When they are together, it sounds like the same podcast on repeat.

I love the sweet and salty vibe of this genuine friendship. The fashion of it all, the self- reflective lens on life and breaking down of pop culture is a perfect recipe.

Stassi sounds like she's on drugs and she's speaking in slow mo. Get off the BB. So many mothers and daughters have the same dynamic she talks about w Hartford. Something's changed and stassi is so out of it. She's kinda insufferable

Love both of them but it’s a bit too much boasting about how wonderful Stassi is. It’s almost like Taylor is just a sidekick and she’s not, she’s an experienced podcast host and I don’t like how Stassi talks down to her on here.

Miss the old show where it wasn’t only Tay as a guest . Tay is fun but I liked the variety of guests and different topics . May not listen as much as before.

Always loved listening to Stassi before she had Tay on every episode, but I love it even MORE now. Stassi with Tay has become my favorite podcast! Best dynamic duo - both are incredibly hilarious and have such great takes on all the hot topics out there

I agree with the review that said she missed Kristina Kelly, Lo, and Alex. KK is the best vibe…and brings the most relatable, funny, and genuine content.
