“I love MM but I’m really disappointed the first episode back after this summer is about 9/11. 9/11 is already really sad. I don’t know why the first episode had to have the same guest as before retelling a horrific event. Disappointed. She should have at least released one happy episode and then...”Read full review »

“My goodness- please create an outline of talking points. Too much random chatter, with speakers talking over each other and interrupting. Pick a theme and address it with clear suggestions and advice.”

“I wanted to like this pod and generally agree with some of the advice given. I do think she should stick to dating - there have been a number of random topics lately that are relatable only to the host. Some of the guests seem to just be her friends and/or extremely random. My other qualm is that...”Read full review »

“For just over 3 years I have followed Matchmaker Maria - I discovered her thru the UUp podcast in 2021 - and have been in a relationship for 2yrs 9months: coincidence? Maybe… but either way I enjoy her unique perspective on dating/relationships & love shared thru the podcast & social...”Read full review »

“Maria is like no other- 4th generation matchmaker, warm, smart, very good at matching folks…but she’s also HILARIOUS and progressive and talks about equity and loves elevating queer love. She knows love and dating better than almost everyone and brings on the BEST folks to get into it. SO GOOD.”

“UPDATE: I left my original review maybe 3 years ago and nothing has changed. Maria had a super interesting guest on today - anxious attachment guy, Chris. Yet we barely got to hear anything he had to say because Maria didn’t shut up the entire episode. Maria, we are begging you, please let your...”Read full review »

“The host brings every topic back to herself and talks about the same things- her kids, how she wasn’t attracted to her husband and how much her MIL hates her. Maria has great guests but the interviews are a huge flop. It’s a missed opportunity to learn something new from a professional / author /...”Read full review »

“I like Marias advice on Insta but on the podcast sometimes she seems to be talking women into sticking with men they clearly aren’t into or their gut is giving them strong signals. Latest guest Melanie - I know it’s not cool to criticize vocal fry but I couldn’t stay with this. If you’re going to...”Read full review »

“The most recent episode was REALLY BAD. For this politician to say that woman should be ok with dating someone who says “i would hope a woman wouldn’t make that choice” and for Maria not to challenge him on it is anti-feminist and harmful to the pro-life movement. You don’t know what you would...”Read full review »

Give yourself the grace she does not give. People aren’t perfect and neither are relationships.
