My Fridays are going to be more glum without you guys, I’m already missing you. No guilt or anything, but I truly loved having you three be a part of my Friday every week for so long, it meant a lot to have information and levity at the same time. Hope you’re well!

I’m. So. Sad. Please don’t leave me alone here. Please. I love you three so much. Please. Please.

Sad
I am so sad to hear of the show ending. You 2/3 were the highlight of my Friday.

Thank you Courtney, Brent, Travis and Muston! Y’all made me heard when I was scared, assured when I was nervous and gave me lots of laughs. SO MANY! Cheers to y’all. And loved the outtakes at the end felt like the perfect end to a series

Travis, Brent, and Courtney, if you read this, I want to thank all three of you for the years you’ve dedicated to this podcast. I stopped listening to the news about two years ago for my own mental health, but I always listened to each new episode to get my (paaaaaaaaaahlitics) roundup. You all...Read full review »

I loved this podcast! I hate news and politics, but I felt like I could get important information about current affairs from people who care about others. I'll miss hearing this podcast, but I hope each host does well in their next stage!!!!!!!Read full review »

Great if you want to listen to two out-of-touch white people claim to be woke while shaming the left.
Melbentssb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/20
I'll be honest, I left when Travis left, but not because of that. It just got to the point where I was very aware of how long the intro had become. I wanted to at least start the discussion on the actual news during my 20 minute commute, and I needed something to leave my weekly podcast...Read full review »

Okay for adults to speak and sound like adults.
Cherrywick via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/20
Brent likes to pretend he’s a scientist while getting the facts wrong and often spreading harmful or bigoted information in. Additionally, prefacing information with “Don’t quote me on this but...” or “I’ve heard some people are saying...” is not appropriate when acting as a journalistic source....Read full review »

This is the only podcast that I’ve consistently listened to, among the dozens I’ve followed. It’s been a long time companion to my ears, and I look forward to every episode. I love Courtney, and she’s
Kyliebentz08 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/27/20
I started listening to this because of Travis. Yeah, he’s be gone sometimes but there was always the promise of him coming back. His lightness and joy balanced out the performative wokeness of three white hosts, but this is the second show of his that he’s backed out of and I’m kind of picking up...Read full review »
Falconaxego via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/20
With the announcement that Travis is stepping back, I think I have to as well. He brings a lightness to the show that the other hosts can’t manufacture in his absence. While Brent and Courtney are good in their own rights, they need Travis’s natural demeanor to be able to straddle that line...Read full review »

If you like performative wokeism from white people this is for you. White wine and/or Pomplemousse LaCroix will probably be mentioned. This must have been awful without Courtney.
123FakeSt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/01/20
I can’t wait for the election season to end. I like Courtney’s humor and her takes on general news, but her political leanings are not my fave.
Durains via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/29/20
I’ve loved having Courtney on the show for however long she’s been on. I have listened from the beginning, and she’s introduced a dynamic to TLT that I really appreciate and that I think has made TLT a million times better.
Mr Korman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/20
Courtney is the best part of this show, hands down!
Argontel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/20
Glad they do their research on things and i do like listening to keep up with the news but think i enjoyed the show more before Courtney was a host, I feel like shes poor representation for having a woman’s perspective on the show, she’s like a caricature of a feminist. I understand where shes...Read full review »
sinistersippycup via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/14/20
These guys are relatively centrist, but they do their research. I appreciate that they clarify when they are saying an opinion vs. an actual fact. And they do their due dilligence, so even if I don't agree with the analysis I can still learn something and keep informed about what Democrats...Read full review »

Thanks for making this relatable to younger generations and informative! Keep it up!!!
Trekstar84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/20
Hey guys, love yall, love the podcast. Just wanted to pop into to say hey, maybe Brent should stop talking over and interrupting Courtney? I like Brent, but there are some moments I’m starting to find irritating where it really feels like he’s trying to position himself as the logical party, and...Read full review »
MakoMemelord via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/20
Akin to the Morning Show or The View, the show covers articles from various publications without much if any original content. In response to the articles, which themselves are taken from “progressive” publications and are never questioned, the hosts will voice their opinions, which all also tend...Read full review »
Kodjie via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/02/20
I enjoy listening to this podcast! I adore the hosts and how it feels like a much less depressing way to digest the news! Obviously it’s not perfect, but they try and they care sincerely and truly. That’s what I love. And to Courtney: you’re doing wonderfully, I love your contributions to the...Read full review »
Bigtimewhovian via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/19
This podcast covers, albeit briefly, the trending news each week. They keep it to around an hour, but I could do with two...but I know not everyone has that kind of time to listen. I like Travis and Brent okay, but I ADORE Courtney's additions. She is a writer at a number of outlets, and...Read full review »
ProMikeTheus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/14/19
i say this as a BIG taz fan; the best thing the mcelboys have ever given me is the chance to get to listen to courtney. brent and travis are great too, i suppose. but, really, i never thought i would find in a weekly news podcast such an important source for the modelling of compassion, the...Read full review »
mousicle11 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/14/19
Courtney, Brent, and Travis make my day every Friday(/Saturday in New Zealand) when I can hear them talk about the happenings in the world in a in-depth way that helps me even further understand what’s going on. Even when one of the trio is missing, the show is still just as wholesome,...Read full review »
DioGiorno via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/19
I'm a long-time listener who is beginning to grow weary with the show, and I feel compelled to weigh in since I'm seeing a lot of my own complaints echoed in the other reviews. I don't want to unsubscribe -- I think I would "miss" them each week! -- but I also want them to do...Read full review »
SDSSTL via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/19
It’s not perfect, but no show is, so who cares. Travis is awesome, Brent is awesome, Courtney is awesome. It’s not going to be for everyone, but the mix of three very different people trying to come to terms with the darkest timeline without imploding while also trying to entertain their audience...Read full review »
Donovan564 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/11/19
:D
Listening to trends Like These is my favorite way to catch up on the news without having total “the world is a dumpster fire” burn out. It’s also nice to listen to other people rage about the same things that make me upset. Also Courtney is amazing, anyone who says otherwise just can’t deal with...Read full review »

I pretty much listen exclusively for Courtney. from one foul-mouthed, outspoken lady to another... LOVE IT!!!
Clareeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/19
I love Courtney, and this show, and Courtney being on this show. 5/5 for the show, 5/5 for the Courtney content.
hbyounk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/19
The show is good but her voice is annoying and she feels the need to attack anyone with any view point bot in line with her neo feminist anti male view point
Getthisapp44542 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/17/19
I’ve been listening to this podcast since day one, and it’s a mainstay in my top 5 fave podcasts. Recently there have been a lot of episodes that don’t feature all three hosts for various work, illness, travel, or home life reasons.. and I just have to say that I really truly appreciate how much...Read full review »

i love courtney. :3
nerdpiggy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/19
Used to donate to these guys on maxfun but Brent’s ability to pseudoexcuse anyone’s behaviors as long as they criticize the DNC just gets really old.
Reginald McShorty Pants via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/19
I like Travis and Courtney, but Brent comes across as a Privileged Cishet White Man in ways that Travis doesn’t. It’s fun when Courtney tells him off but you can tell Brent doesn’t think about what it’s like to be a woman in society. Otherwise it’s fine, you just have to keep in mind they aren’t...Read full review »
Toby (the girl) via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/19
I still really like this show, but I do hope that constructive criticism can be acknowledged and considered. I love Brent and Travis, and I would like to continue to have Courtney on the show. I like her perspective and her journalistic expertise. However, as several people have said in reviews...Read full review »
Pandamaster142 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/19
I loved this pod for a long time and I was perfectly happy with Courtney. However, I find it unbearably hypocritical that they add so many trigger warnings, including for drug or alcohol abuse, but start their show talking about the booze they are drinking and often, especially with Courtney, how...Read full review »
Kate Littleton via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/29/19
I am a listener of multiple other McElroy podcasts, and came to Trends Like These after hearing an ad on a different podcast. The ads made this seem like they lightheartedly discuss current trends, but I was disappointed to find that this was just a group of people complaining loudly in podcast...Read full review »
Brownsinman33 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/19
At the start of the episode, it was remarked on how great it was to have all three people present, so I think the intention is for all three people to have equal voices. Something different is happening, with Travis dominating. The show would also benefit from a wider diversity of voices. It...Read full review »
Knittinmama via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/19
I love Courtney- she is angry about all the same things I am, and her rage makes me and my fury feel so incredibly validated! Not to mention her rants and monologues help me find the right words to articulate my feelings about these subjects that make me feel like i’m coming undone! I love Brent...Read full review »
Maccc54 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/19
But please stop treating it like a serious news show. That is not what it is, ever has been, or has pretended to be. (Also Courtney is best)
Lorelei Faye via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/19
I'm a big fan of the show, and listen every week. I'll start by saying that contrary to what is usually complained about, I have no issues with Courtney's foul language or anything like that (actually I enjoy that to a degree). She is also very funny, and I have to give her...Read full review »
Adamwriter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/19
Love Courtney and Brent’s banter as well as Travis’ goofiness. Appreciate hearing about important stories and fun stories in a digestible way!
SailorMK via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/19
That’s to say, essential and wonderful. I was a listener before, but I really love that she adds such a crucial point of view. Also I love all the swears.
EarthAmber via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/19
Courtney Enlow is an angelic goddess who doesn't really hate all men, but is totally entitled to hate them all of she wanted to. Travis and Brent are great, but compared to Courtney are mere mortals. Keep doing what you're doing and don't let the haters keep you down. This is my...Read full review »
Hannah-Moon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/19
This show brings together humor and seriousness in a way that is both respectful of the information that they bring across as well as not leaving a feeling of hopelessness that news often does nowadays. Courtney in particular is very relatable, intelligent, and entertaining. If you’re not already...Read full review »
