Absolutely loving this! FINALLY a podcast for the sports girlies!

I hate feeling like I’m the only one who doesn’t know what’s going on when everyone’s talking about sports so this show was exactly what I needed - it’s really for the girlies and wow I like sports now??

I love that theSkimm does sports now! This is the take I’ve been needing!! Also, the dynamic between the hosts are great. What a fun listen!

This is a fun show that is keeping me well informed about a topic I don’t usually know much about. Sports journalism is usually so closed off to female fans/viewers/listeners. Looking forward to keeping up with this pod!

This is so fun to listen to! Love anything from theSkimm and excited they are doing sports!

I may be a bit biased because I love the hosts, but Well Played has been a breath of fresh air. Sports talk is usually too serious and full of hot takes, but theSkimm keeps it light and fun. I find myself recapping their convos with friends after finishing each episode. Keep it up!

candidly I do not care about sports. I wish I was a sports girlie but I really am not. sue me. I saw this podcast come thru in the weekend skimm and was definitely drawn in by the branding but the conversations were super funny, I was surprised tbh! the shows I used to listen to from theSkimm...Read full review »

Clicked on this from the newsletter by chance, I’m not even really much of a sports fan. I learned so much within the first few minutes of the show, a great mix between sports talk and sports goss. I also really loved the chemistry between the two cohosts! Looking forward to more episodes!

I keep up with the NFL and am a casual fan of other sports, just so that I can hold a convo with my brothers and husband. But this show actually makes sports content entertaining, and the host dynamic is charming and hilarious. I want to hang out with Blake and Amanda!! Definitely recommend, 10/10.

Canceling this is a major loss to the Skimm catalog of podcasts. This is by far the best one and the only one that doesn’t give me white girl vocal fry. 😵‍💫

Loved this show. Easily one of my top 5 favorites. Really loved Bridget and all of the content this podcast covered. Please consider bringing it back.

I can’t believe this is coming to an end. Some of the best and best relatable content. 😢
haileycreative via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/07/22
I’ve really enjoyed listening to this podcast and am gutted it’s not carrying on. Wishing the presenters and people behind the scenes all the best 👍🏻

Why is this ending?! 😭 Did it not get enough investment and support?! It really should have. It was nice and refreshing way to look at pop culture. I hope something close to this comes back.
Msymns via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/01/22
This was such a great show - Armstrong did a fantastic job. Touched on a multitude of topics with sophisticated levity and insight. A perfect balance to the daily slug of the news. Truly disappointed and annoyed TheSkimm did not continue with this great production.

Disappointed this has ended. I enjoyed Bridget’s content and her spin on pop culture. Thank you and good luck!

Loved this show. Very sad that it’s ending
GlamRock671 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/22
I love this pod and looked forward to new episodes. So sad that it’s ending🥺

How can you trust a podcast focused on current events when they endorse pseudoscience? Inviting “professional” astrologers without explaining the facts is so irresponsible.
skeptical reviewers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/14/22
Don’t bother, nothing creative here
BEth_1492 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/22
i know i can always come to pop cultured to hear the lowdown on the news i care about—and with a nuanced perspective. great job, team!
Loopy Moonstar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/22
I like hearing the deeper connections pop culture has to other societal issues and bias, I think everyone should give it a listen. Maybe if they got a cohost they could do more discussing about issues than interviewing. I think it could be a nice change of pace for some episodes or even to help...Read full review »
Gummy bears galore via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/22
Show started off strong but has become unlistenable. Content doesn’t match show description and isn’t what’s advertised. Not everything in this world is racist but the host could find a way to spin trying to save the bees is somehow marginalizing communities of color. I really wanted this to be a...Read full review »

I really wanted to like this podcast. I’ve been an avid skimm fan for many years and I feel like their quality is just slowly declining, and this podcast illustrates that. I just wish every single episode didn’t have a political slant. I tend to lean left myself, and fully agree racism needs to...Read full review »

I really wanted to like this podcast but I just can’t… so biased toward the left and their narrative that every thing is racist
valiegirl26 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/21
Love that each ep of this pod gets into the bigger picture and societal implications of the pop culture stories my friends and I are already thinking and talking about!
queen elizabeth anne via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/21
Obviously slanted to support a single view of what’s happening in the world rather than *actually* exploring these issues. I’ve been a daily reader of the Skimm for years now and was wildly disappointed listening to this.
golden2353 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/02/21
Informative and intellectually stimulating 30 mins!
mil@1984 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/21
Absolutely loving this new show!

Fresh, fast & so much fun - I’m hooked!

I love it! It is a fresh voice in a world of chaos. I can't wait until the next episode.Read full review »

Love the three episodes so far. Keep speaking and spreading the truth and keep more episodes coming 💕
samanthaaaaf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/21
Doesn’t cancel, speaks to the nuance of being people of multiple identities. A much needed thoughtful perspective into the way life reflects pop culture and vis versa. Plus, it’s entertaining and well done!
phiphiredhead via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/21
great show. it’s really frustrating how people have no problem listening to white women talk about pop culture ALL day, but they have a problem listening to a black woman. smh i’m so over you people. we can see right through you and your mess. if you don’t wanna listen then don’t listen. I’m...Read full review »

The information is interesting, but felt biased and had an agenda. While the women in these stories have been treated awfully, a news program would tell me how to help if I wanted to, not tell me I should. Will this be held up to the same standards as the daily Skimm? I don’t consider skimmed...Read full review »

I wanted to love this and I really like the concept, but I’m hopeful they find a new host. I can’t do 30+ minutes of listening to it.
