“Terribly constructed, hopping randomly around, and as much as I want to like the host I found her quite annoying.
I'm five episodes on and episode four incensed me... we hear about how she might not have a job any more because they're considering ditching the podcast, but she hasn't...”Read full review »

“When I first discovered this podcast I was ecstatic. Cool, raw content with a lot of first hand insight within tech/start ups and in NY (especially for me being a California native and wanting to move to NY).
Huge disappointment in the lack of follow up episodes and how far apart they were....”Read full review »

“For someone with no background in radio, production , or editing, this podcast is really good. She's a natural storyteller. The fact that the podcast is raw and not as clean as more established shows is the POINT. She was hired as an intern for a start up to create a podcast about creating a...”Read full review »

The story telling is engaging, the honesty and the fresh view into the tech world is amazing. I hope the direction of the original...”Read full review »

“This podcast is excellent. However, the latest episode about CHKN felt not as polished as before. Perhaps it's because so much of it seemed to be focused on this game, and it was difficult to see how it connected to Allison. It was not quite as introspective, nor was there struggle or anxiety. I...”Read full review »
