Customer Reviews
YanYan brought me back
I am a YanYan STAN - more from her, please! Really enjoying the more recent content.
Mixed quality
Some episodes like the recent Bella Sims one are just sneaky advertisements for brands such as Speedo, which really brings down the journalistic integrity of the podcast. The breakdowns and general news episodes are good overall though.
Sound quality needs improvement
I’m very interested in the topics, but so many of episodes have such poor sound quality that I turn it off (especially episode 1,051).
