I like this podcast but I need everyone to know that you absolutely SHOULD NOT remove the lid from your toilet and you should put the lid down before you flush every time. Otherwise you’re spraying fecal matter or urine all over your bathroom.

Really enjoyed this latest Nadira and Sam ep.

Kind, funny, clear advice

Ashley C. Ford is fantastic! I hope her guest-host role expands if that’s something she’s interested in doing
carla2692 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/23/24
Ashley, as a guest host, is so much better at the basic job description of giving advice than Jenée, it’s nuts. Less judgmental, actually catches the details shared in the letter, WAY less holier than thou about her own choices and lifestyle, more empathetic. Jenée is sometimes very funny but...Read full review »

It brings me a lot of comfort. I love the opportunity to hear the perspectives of different guests as well as the host💕

Can’t stop listening— Jenee has great perspectives and guests!

There could be a little less idle chit-chat and more discussing questions but not bad over all.
JoeMac7345 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/09/24
This chick is out here stereotyping every conservative and trying to justify her hatred for them. How hasn’t she died here hair crazy colors yet.

OMG. Your advice was so a**-backwards I don’t even know where to start. If someone insults someone in their language or another that feeling is going to come across in the way they interact with them in other ways. I can guarantee that his daughter felt something. And guess what? His...Read full review »

Letter writers provide details to get the most of the advice they are asking for, and somehow the host and guests are terrible at retaining these details. This regularly rockets the advice off in a wildly wrong direction. With Orna as the guest they turn on the birthday letter writer about being...Read full review »

Hearing Kiese Laymon solve problems? It does not get better.
kmariesf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/19/24
Really poor analysis and advice. Not sure why anyone would want her take on things.
Karen1855 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/24
Too critical of letter writers. Too much smugness, too little compassion.
ftyjiooomkj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/24
I hope no one actually follows this advice. Yes it’s entertaining but sound and beneficial? Definitely not. Some people write in w serious issues that could benefit from some actual counseling. Not pat answers with straight lady bias and major gaps in understanding. There’s a lot of criticism of...Read full review »

The advice always finds a way to blame the letter writer no matter how illogical
Tessnp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/25/24
Telling a person that’s being stalked at work to “not bring it to HR because they may think you’re part of the drama” and then suggesting that they QUIT their job instead is a wild take. The host is literally advocating to accept abuse and potentially forgo your own stability in order to not rock...Read full review »

Love the great advice, always an interesting listen. Not psyched to hear political adverts from Big Oil.
Kb262626 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/24
Yikes on the anti-police rhetoric. Super judgmental viewpoints except on what is clearly important to her, and her very like-minded guests. Doesn’t seem able to think critically and if your opinion is different, you are wrong/ shamed. Very bizarre option for someone giving advice.
Eimba42 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/24
Normally I love this podcast but occasionally the quality of the guest’s sound is so off that it’s hard to hear and understand. Please, dear Prudence, don’t drop a show if the guest sounds like they are in a tin can.
The Garden Lady via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/24
The advice is always very one sided. I joined slate plus just for this podcast as I had heard it was great for advice. I have been very disappointed. I understand wanting to be PC but the advice Prudie gives is so one sided and she seems edited in her responses so that she won’t get canceled. Her...Read full review »

I have unsolicited advice for bird lady. Ask him to go with you to carry equipment.

I love the show, and I have been looking forward to it every week for years!
sarahkmeier via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/23
She’s so good at giving advice! I always look forward to hearing her take.
Demi1982AvidListener via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/23
If you’re looking for depth, this isn’t the podcast for you
xhensila p via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/08/23
I really wanted to like this podcast but I feel like the advice is very privileged and skewed. The host lacks empathy and is very judgmental of the letter writers and doesn’t provide practical advice.
jzunicorn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/08/23
Did this come up on my podcast list? Didn’t like this one- not clever, her advice is incredibly limited like she doesn’t have much life experience, or unique perspectives either. She jumps to weird conclusions and it’s not pleasant listening to her voice.
ariel mcknight via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/23
I just listened to two episodes - one about a girlfriend who wants her boyfriend to post photos of her on social media and a sister who has been asked to take down a wedding photo at her own house because it might offend her brother’s fiancé. In both cases - such unwise advice. And also -...Read full review »

If you don’t have kids and don’t want them this is not the podcast. Terrible advice about “changing your mind” and saying that you should change your whole life around other’s kids is very gross and tiring. Women are more than kids but they don’t get that and don’t give rational advice like...Read full review »
casm1/11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/23
I wanted to love this, but I found that the advice was, unfortunately, quite bad.
lnak1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/23
Hello. Sometimes it feels like you are not looking at the case from all angles; it feels like you are blurting out the first idea that comes to your mind. When people write in, you gotta consider that they are going to take what you say to heart. There is an answer one gives when a question is...Read full review »

Great podcast! Disappointed but not surprised by the sexist comments nitpicking her voice in the reviews. I love the new host!
Michael P. Frontenac via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/22/23
Prudence your valley girl/vocal fry is incredibly annoying. I recognize it’s also very contagious so if your friends speak with this affectation can be difficult to overcome. Please see a speech therapist before it impacts your professional life.
jsh.boston via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/23
I could talk about each letter forever with my friends and family.
mspassell via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/23
I have enjoyed listening to many of the episodes, and I do find it entertaining! However, I often feel like the host lacks compassion for the people writing in and almost shames them. Also, she often takes very large leaps as to what the letter writer’s problem actually is (when she needs more...Read full review »

I just started listening today. I love the discussion and advice about each situation. I also appreciate that I always get a few laughs from each episode.
A-leigh27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/13/23
Whether it’s the host who pronounces the “n” in “columnist” or the illiterate letter readers who are saying half of these words for the first time (again, incorrectly), I can’t handle how dumb everyone is. Also that the gist and all of her guests make everything about race and being black, even...Read full review »
amcs2323 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/23
This podcast reminds me of a Reddit board. A great place to get in-depth answer to a question, but the advice will be super biased with a high chance of being wrong. So as long as someone listens to the advice as they would an open forum of non-experts on a subject, it’s well-produced and...Read full review »

Prudence gives great advice and the questions are always interesting.
Susie Snowflake16 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/23
The host seems to give bad advice, that often doesn’t consider all sides and different life experiences than hers. The guests often save the day for me, as they tend to give much more nuance and well rounded thought
Aschvez84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/23
Love to hear the advice and apply or just observe. Great job!
Jonezin9 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/18/23
I’m a new follower Dear Prudence. I didn’t know about the column, but I found this show and I listen weekly (even going back to listen to old podcasts). This podcast has been a great find for me. It’s funny. I learn a lot about engaging with people. It’s refreshing (possibly because I listen to...Read full review »

Currently binging the episodes from current to past. Eye opening and provides a perspective to issues that I wouldn’t think prior. Jenée is down to earth and always seems to surprise me (in a good way!) how to approach situations. Highly recommend! Oh! And the guests are great too!
xZakux via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/23
I love advice columns and podcasts, they're entertaining and you learn a lot. I've given this a shot but the host is cringe and the advice is unkind - it's just a no for me. She sounds like a very entitled person. Companies need to catch up to the times we are in today and choose the...Read full review »
