Very one sided
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 condescending attitude and holier than thou approach to her letter writers has become increasingly unappealing. It would do her well to read some real books, educate herself a bit better, and try having a little empathy for people. Just because someone doesn’t have the same exact views as you doesn’t mean they’re a bad person. And that’s the way the show comes off.
