Well researched podcast that clearly presents the risks and broken system associated with Greek life. While initially, you may think this ais about one gal’s experience, it’s not. It’s about the system, which is broken and endangering our college kids.

The podcast is interesting but if vocal fry sounds like nails on a chalkboard, skip it.

I appreciate this podcast because sorority life has blown up since tiktok. My daughter joined A Phi at her university and also had a terrible experience and dropped ( not for dramatic or traumatic reasons such as Lucy) but she saw a phony side to the girls, party culture and those who don’t...Read full review »

I grew up and graduated in the town with the largest greek system (UofA.) My only connection to Greek Life was selling them GS cookies and yes I was the top salesperson. When my daughter mentioned she wanted to go to a school with Sororities I asked some friends in my current state that had been...Read full review »

Very impressed with how the podcast evolved and all the interviews and research that went into this. I really hope there’s a season 4. I was never in Greek life, I briefly dated a couple people in that were part of Greek life when I was in college, and I was always left with a bad taste in my...Read full review »

Updating from 4 to 5 stars after listening to seasons 2 and 3. Really like how she expanded to explore more stories and data about Greek life. Lots of food for thought as someone who was in a sorority! Old review: Just finished season 1. This is definitely just one woman’s story but I related to...Read full review »

Things have gotten much worse, sisters. Listen here if you want to get the whole story. Sororities are not as concerned with your daughter as they used to be

Great podcast but please stop singing. I wanted to send to some friends with daughters heading to college but the singing will drive them nuts. It sort of takes away from the serious nature of the subject. Otherwise you do an amazing job and are a great podcaster.
Sandcastles75 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/22/23
…are juvenile off-putting. Especially the singing. Please stop.

Really great well produced podcast covering such an important topic. I was instantly hooked and am so hopeful to hear future seasons.

when i say that SNAPPED became my life when i listened, i cannot overstate that. i roped in my partner and my friends. all of us have or have had some connection to greek life, and all of us are walking away from this podcast changed. i heard MY STORY told by others voices. themes of...Read full review »

I’m pathologically contrary and counter culture so sororities always made me cringe. This confirms what i suspected they were about all along. Congrats for standing on your own two feet and not needing the validation of the masses to live your best life.

Lucy, great job with this podcast. I’ve never really heard a comprehensive taking-on of the Greek system and all it’s many abuses and injustices. I think we only know the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the extent that these “old boy networks” work to gain and preserve wealth and power for...Read full review »

I just finished college (I was a GDI) and I had no idea Greek life was this bad! Everyone should listen to this before they go to college or consider joining Greek life
Henry Cavendish via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/26/23
the stories are good and the host is good at guiding stories but the ads and the ad placement is truly and honestly the worst i’ve ever heard on a podcast. stories are cut off mid word with 3-4 full length ads, like ok they’re long but least put them at the END of a sentence/story😭 makes for a...Read full review »

Got 5 minutes and 44 seconds in and had to turn it off. The extreme vocal fry and weird reality-show style chopped editing of every word was driving me nuts. I really wanted to listen to this but I cannot handle the fry.
CarlyGard via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/23
This is an excellent podcast but as a Brit I find the whole culture disgusting. Absolutely horrible people.
MarkT1964 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/10/23
It’s crazy the level of exploitation Greek culture enables and the hate it perpetuates (if you need evidence just scroll through the one star comments) that are perpetuating heteronormativity, sexism (vocal fry is sexiest), transphobic, racism, etc. the idea that someone sharing their story and...Read full review »

this podcast is pretty good but please stop making us listen to you sing.
MojoJOJO99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/23
Season 3 is off with a bang! Bravo Lucy!! Thank you for sharing these stories and putting a framework/language to something that so many of us have experienced. I feel less alone each episode. A podcast like Snapped is long overdue. In abolition solidarity ✊🏼

Ugh
As an Alpha Phi Alum from a small commuter school. I am not only appalled but horrified. Mainly at the fact that you literally have no clue. My husband is also Greek (I’ll leave his house out of it) but honestly I am not sure you have any sea what your talking about
Nctwinmom via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/11/23
I also heard about your podcast through A Little Bit Culty. I was impressed by your strength and confidence from that podcast which led me to Snapped. I am also Canadian so am not familiar with this crazy, toxic system. I’m so glad I didn’t have to deal with this in my University. It would have...Read full review »

Great show. I admire your bravery.
Женя Жданова via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/18/23
I binged season 1 in one day while moving into a new apartment—this podcast is such an interesting and well conducted production. My college didn’t even have Greek life, but being a grad student + teaching assistant at a private university where Greek life is a HUGE deal, this was a very fun...Read full review »
AnaSun1035 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/23
When I was young many years ago, I didn’t rush because I couldn’t afford it, was merely pretty rather than beautiful, and knew none of them wanted an introvert nerd like me. Sounds like I didn’t miss anything. Thanks for the courage in sharing your story.
cinji via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/23
Grow up girl! This girl PUT HERSELF in sketchy situations and then blamed someone else. According to her it’s all someone else’s fault. She wasn’t being held hostage by a foreign government for Christ sakes. She could’ve put an end to her participation in greek life and she is a very weak girl...Read full review »
Sunshine Moonshine via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/16/23
Snapped provides the unfiltered truth of Greek life in the USA. From the rush process to everything surrounding the culture. A must listen.
Gabot6 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/02/23
She is clearly super passionate and knowledgeable about greek life. The greek life system is a perfect breeding ground for white supremacy and the patriarchy, and I’m glad someone is shedding light on how messed up these institutions are!
Lay Bay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/30/23
This is the worst podcast ever…her voice alone is hard to listen to. If you want to understand what is wrong with society, it’s all right here.
Michelle Earle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/23
I went into this podcast with extremely limited knowledge of Greek life and found it riveting. Thank you Lucy for sharing your story and standing up for what’s right even after being broken down by this cult-like system.
Danielle dee1111 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/16/23
The states are wild….Season 2 really delves into the history of this system. Who knew this insidious, strange, culture went back so far, but then again, it doesn’t surprise. Lucy and company, thanks for your courage and hard work. This is worth a listen for anyone considering this path.
jwalkaroo via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/10/23
When I joined a sorority, it was great at first. Things ended up going downhill and I went early alum at the beginning of my junior year. For most of a decade after that, I still believed that my experience was because of a few “bad apples” and was defensive of the institution of Greek life...Read full review »
mariajgilbert via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/23
I do wanted to listen, but the vocal fry sweet my teeth on edge. Consider a vocal coach. I know you are smart- I heard you on A Little Bit Culty. Your voice is sabotaging you.
mooshoo123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/01/23
Seriously, seek help, it’s clearly needed
Ugh111 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/22
First of all, you should know that this podcast is about the Alpha Phi sorority at the University of Maryland. This was revealed on the A Little Bit Culty podcast. While this is an interesting expose of Greek life, anyone who is shocked by the fact that sororities are shallow, oppressive,...Read full review »
Clarekc15 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/22
I enjoyed the story and think you did a great job telling it. However, you might look closer at your audio editing and not do so many quick cuts. It’s super distracting. Also, consider a vocal coach. The vocal fry is really distracting.
@NinaJ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/22
I am so thankful you shared your story. I wish I could have heard this before my nieces went in to the sorority life. I appreciate your truth and transparency!! Keep living your best life!! ❤️

Thank you for sharing your story! Also really well don’t!!!

Half way through season 1 and I can’t stop. Thank you for telling your story.

CleoGrujot via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/30/22
I was involved with the same sorority as Lucy in college and had what I thought to be at the time a positive experience, much different than hers. And yet, as I listen to these stories and think about members I knew who disaffiliated over the years, I can’t help but notice that I was definitely...Read full review »
Dancincrazy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/22
I heard about you and your podcast on A Little Bit Culty. I am an Aussie (living in Canada) and I don’t believe we have sororities in Australia (we do in Canada) but I could be wrong. This was an eye opener about them and what goes on. So toxic. Good for you for speaking out - sending lots...Read full review »
Healthyhelen via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/25/22
Choose a sorority based on superficial things and that’s what you will get from it in return. Never heard you mention you wanted a group where you could be yourself, just that you wanted to sit with the pretty people. Pretty on the outside, ugly on the inside. Bravo.
FeechPeach via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/23/22
Thank you Lucy for bringing light to a needed conversation. I have never been in a Sorority but the information discussed is helpful in my search to discern healthy organizations from dysfunctional cultic groups so that I can be involved in spaces that are in integrity with my values. I love the...Read full review »

When I first started listening, all the trauma from personal experiences with Greek Life in college came back, and I realized I still have hurtful emotions that are really deeply buried from events that took place over 20 years ago. It was actually very uncomfortable, but it has been so healing...Read full review »
Pinkchampagne73 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/22
Seems that most of the low scoring reviews are from those still in this cult, victim blamers, and haters who dislike her for her voice. This was truly insightful and reconfirms how I felt towards the Greek like during my college years. No individuality and extremely problematic on many levels.
