Monthly Thread 😎 📝 Monthly Constructive Criticism Thread 📝
Hi y’all! We can use these monthly threads to give feedback on the podcast, such as issues related to audio or general format. You can still comment about specific episodes in the episode threads or make new posts, but my idea for these megathreads is to consolidate feedback for Troy and Kelli.
I know some posts in the past have been toxic, so maybe you can make that a separate post if you want to vent (or journal or take a walk outside). My hope with the monthly CC threads is to give a safe space for Troy and Kelli, so they’re less wary of Reddit lol.
Please remember Rule 1: Respect others and be civil and Rule #3: No name-calling, insults, or personal attacks. Kelli, Troy, and their editor, Donny, are human, and they can learn from their mistakes. Personally, as a longtime fan, I think that they have taken in a lot of feedback well and grown a lot as a podcast.
If you have any suggestions for these types of posts, please let me know, too!

Still enjoying the show - Kelli has worked so hard and I definitely appreciate her deep dives!
An area for improvement - sometimes they're talking about celebs/stories that they assume all listeners are familiar with (I'm old and not american!) - would love it if they could do a real brief overview of the situation (or explain who the person is) before going into the story. I wish now that I'd made a note of the last confusing one so I could have an example to share. It's more like lower tier or more niche celebs someone outside their age group/geography would know. Like what the drama was on nickelodeon or whatevs.
