The narrator’s breathy voice drove me crazy-felt like phone sex.

I don’t understand why the interviews were taken off for season 2 with Hugh Hefner. Why should I pay for this if you’re going to delete these with no warning?

BEST PODCAST VOICE EVER! Idk why people r hating on her voice ?! Thank god it’s not the usual flat highly pitched grating voice with every word rising in a question? that? most? millennials? & gen Zrs? seem? to have!?! Couldn’t put season 2 down!! ps- I’m really shocked at all of the haters...Read full review »

That, at any rate, is what season 3 of this podcast wants you to believe. I didn’t make it past the first episode, but as stated early on, this podcast wants to tell you that on balance, Don King is a good guy. His criminality - the many boxers he defrauded and whose lives he help ruin (plus at...Read full review »

I was really looking forward to listening to this series. However 2 episodes in and i cannot listen to the narrators voice anymore, completely brings down the quality of this podcast.

I have a hard time listening to pod cast because the narrators talk to fast thank you your the best

All of the Power series have been researched in detail. With incredible interviews. I’m not even a boxing fan, but this is RIVETING. Panama Jackson has a great voice and delivery too.

Tried to listen to a few different episodes on Hefner but I wasn’t hearing much info about him or Playboy. A lot of “experts” inserting their “expert” opinions (yawn). A porn expert? Give me a break. Seems like she took a subject that should be pretty interesting and made it so boring I couldn’t...Read full review »
/:"2&' is via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/22
Yeah, the narrator’s voice is too breathy, her voice seems unnaturally low pitch. She produces a kind of velvety voice, yes sounding like some kind of sex worker. The narrative is written for a junior-high school or high school level. If this is your intention, then you have created a covert...Read full review »

I don’t understand the negative reviews. So glad i gave it a try. Listened to season 2 over two days. Really great dive into Hugh Hefner and Playboy.
MillsHills via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/22
Good podcast. Great interviews. However, I feel that Tara’s voice is very “put on.” Why does she speak so breathlessly? It’s actually distracting and takes away from the information.
shine_eye via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/29/22
“Uneducated ‘reporter’”? Are you kidding me? Do a google search or look at her Wikipedia page. Pretty amazing career for a woman in her early 30s. Her “1-900 voice” may make you turn the podcast off after 10 seconds, but it was good enough to make her White House Correspondent for ABC!!!!
Chippu23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/22
Excellent podcast. Fantastic research on the part of the host. I specifically enjoyed how she analyzes the way the American culture affected PB and also how PB affected American culture. It’s not just smutty stories—it contains a great deal of context. I highly recommend this show. Also, the...Read full review »

If you find it that distracting: you’ve got issues and women are convenient targets. Seriously, this is such early 2000s sexism, I found her voice to be very soothing. —————— Her voice is not the problem —————— She put in a ton of work, thought and research and you can’t think of anything except...Read full review »

The information is well researched, presented in a compelling way and totally binge worthy. I’m shocked and disappointed this show isn’t rated higher because It deserves to be and I want more of this content! Seasons 1-2 were both excellent and I can’t wait for season 3.
Kadence404 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/22
I was looking for a review of this podcast to see whether I was interested in paying for the subscription, never have I heard people complain so much about someone's voice in the reviews as I have on this one. when doing a reveal we want to know what the content is about, if you see there are...Read full review »

Holly Madison and the whole topic of the mansion is fascinating! She was so honest about her time there and it was entertaining to listen to. The host’s voice was incredibly distracting and seemed insincere. The words and inflection she used in her voice didn’t add up.
kenziepalmerton via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/22
Loved this deep dive into playboy! Well researched, great interviews. Listening to it felt like old school days of radio. Storytelling, reporting and whimsy! Loved it! Honestly I want a part 2 of playboy even though it covered everything already.
cpm0010 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/22
These negative reviews are why this podcast is important… I feel sad for those people. The narrator’s voice does not sound natural but it suits the tone of the podcast. I have watched/read several interviews and docu-series on Hefner and I found the content of this podcast new and interesting. ...Read full review »

Are the attacks on the narrators voice really the problem ? Or do you really just not like the truth of what is being shared…The quickness to judge is baffling me…what if this person had a speech impediment and took vocal lessons? What if it was just their natural voice? DONT JUDGE OTHERS BASED...Read full review »

This is a very interesting story, & I find it well told. However, Amy Rose Speigel’s voice is grating on my nerves. She sounds like a 1-900 sex voice worker.
SCBU64 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/03/22
Sorry, but the host is trying sooooo hard to sound sexy, it takes away from the podcast. Give it a rest and try sounding like a grown up woman.
kaysqd via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 01/02/22
Shame on all of you for judging her voice! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but to put such unkind comments in writing goes beyond simply sharing your opinion. Roll your eyes at the buzzword but this is gender microaggression at its finest. I find the podcast interesting. I am more than...Read full review »

The content is great and would be much better if it was hosted by someone who sounded like they want to be there. Her voice is monotone and she sounds so bored.
MichaelaUK ** via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/30/21
But, host is trying too hard to sound sexy. Very off-putting.
ᑕᒪYᗪE via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/21
Interesting podcast but the host’s voice sounds like she’s a 976 operator. It’s really distracting
Jill and Stuff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/27/21
This hyper-sexual host is gross.
RoPie1979 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/26/21
Great history and analysis. Smart storytelling is that is both fascinating and clear. Interviews are done very well, with insightful questions
MollyWix via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/23/21
This is a really good well written show. I would’ve given it more stars were it not for the host, Tara Palmeri, her voice is distracting. She seems like she wants to sound like a porn star and it’s the one thing made the show not as interesting or enjoyable. She sounds totally unprofessional. ...Read full review »
Janice1966 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/21
This and interesting perspective on playboy and Hefner’s life. However it is a perspective and you can tell some “journalistic” decisions were made on what to include, what to not include and what to rise to prominence. Some of the inferences are tenuous at best and the show presents them as fact...Read full review »

I really liked the content. It kept me interested in the story. But why take unnecessary jabs at Trump? Like him or not it didn’t fit the story. No need for politics. There’s enough meat with the Maxwells.
Bluestone13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/21
Great storytelling. Fascinating. Love how Amy Rose Spiegel is so empathetic.
Food admirer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/21
Please stick to the story and keep your political opinions out of it. And ease stop with the creepy voice.
kmd1977 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/21
I won’t say I’m the best feminist ever but I’ve always been quick to defend women based on my own trauma. However , as a fan of the playboy brand and hearing very positive stories my whole life I am confused by this picture of Hefner as this, I guess dirty old man. The interviews on the paid...Read full review »

I thought her voice was great!

Holly Madison: didn’t have a place to live, knew what playboy was about beforehand, asked Hef to move in, free rent, gave him sex = sex worker haggling over the price and complaining about it. She wasn’t an abused child who was assaulted before moving to LA. At any time, she could have moved...Read full review »

The narrator has a very irritating valley girl cadence and as an Irish woman I found it hard to listen to or take seriously in parts, but the snippets of people involved talking were interesting.
sinead9129 via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 12/17/21
I saw a lot of mean comments about the host’s voice. I think her voice is very soothing and a good voice for podcasting. I don’t mind it and think she is great at interviewing guests. I like how she presents different perspectives from a variety of different people who knew Hugh Hefner.
Carlyq96 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/21
The story is what I expected. But host’s voice is irritating, and she’s constantly apologizing to Holly…
Cool breezezzzz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/21
Uneducated “reporters” trying to act like they are real. Terrible. Wasted 4 hours of my life I’ll never get back. People want facts. Not your stupid entitled political opinions that have Nothing to do with the matter at hand. Stop using your platform for your agenda and report on the actual...Read full review »

I came here to hear the Holly Madison interview and stayed for the excellent storytelling and production style. Looking forward to binging the first season as well. Cheers!
Pshms7767999 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/21
Interesting content, well produced, but host is trying too hard with her voice. It’s distracting, and honestly disturbing if that’s the sound she’s going for or thinks she needs to have.
Meaganclaire via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/21
I can’t listen to the shows as they come out because of the hosts voice. I’m sure she is sexy and we know her background, her voice is way too much!! I am interested in the story but I don’t think I’ll be able to finish the show. It’s too much!! Especially when she talks normal at times, it’s...Read full review »

I paused after 10 seconds of listening. It was too much to bare on my ears. The voice is a turn off.
Bebeprincess via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/21
I found the first few episodes of this podcast interesting and objective. This was true until the one featuring Holly, which is so biased and revisionist it was difficult to listen to in its entirety.
MSNYL via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/14/21
Love love love! So eye opening. Thank you!!! Can’t wait for more.
rom13cole via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/13/21
The story is great and interesting but I just can’t stand when the host speaks in that breathy voice. It sounds so forced in the same way that Elizabeth Holmes has that forced deep voice!!
