You Can’t Hide From Who You Are On A Podcast

Today’s episode is all about how the Betches founders first got into podcasting, with stories of how Jordana, Sami and Aleen each came to host some of your favorite shows. They begin by listening to a brief clip of their very first podcast discussion way back in 2016 (spoiler: Rob and Blac Chyna were still relevant at the time). They reminisce on how Betch Slapped first got started, and what led them to launch a number of other podcasts including U Up?, Diet Starts Tomorrow, and more. They also discuss what it means to have a “vulnerability hangover” after a podcast recording, the unique feeling of baring your personal life to a huge audience, and the perils of handing out advice to strangers. Then a listener writes in to ask whether or not she should offer some unsolicited dating advice of her own to a friend who’s struggling in the romance department. Is it ever okay to offer guidance unprompted, or is it always best to keep it to yourself? Finally, they pay homage to the first game ever played on the podcast by having a “verbal smackdown” style debate about a very important subject: What is the definitive HBO show?
