    Such a delightful part of my week!
    Long time listener and I just love the variety and Heather’s take on everything from Bravo to all things pop culture. I don’t love every minute of every show but I do love 99%! My fav podcast out there. Especially loved today’s episode with Brett F. I’m also in Heaven on days that Heather does the show alone or with my fav guest Chris F. Thanks Heather!!

    Love the show and I do listen but can’t you let your guests tell a story without you interrupting The guests you have are so interesting and it would be nice to wait to ask your questions ie luann show especially
  • amyhoop
    Skip the “Countess Luann” show…
    Love heather 95% of the time, and when I do get cringe, she usually comes back down to earth and her senses and recognizes getting caught up with the dumb rich and famous people around her. Howeverrrrrrr… I would skip the Luann deLesseps (or whatever) interview. She is one of the gross narcissistic billionaires that is completely in love with herself. Great, and the interview could be kind of funny just on that premise, but she is so off the rails, even Heather has no control of her own show when she is on. One giant brag fest and no good conversation. Sorry Heather, love you! But Luann is so hard to listen to, I just had to turn it off. Gawdddd. I wanted to poke my own eyes out.

    Big fan
    Heather gets a pass for her interview style…I’m sure her guests know what to expect They said….does she not have anyone editing these podcasts? Listening to Annie Elise the number of mistakes is insane. Fix your production….

    Revealing your character
    I have been a loyal listener for years an followed you through all the drama, but seeing your title for your subscription episode is disheartening. Using a friend as a pun for a title, not even a few days after news of her separation breaks is disgusting and I’m calling it quits now.
  • Stephl126
    Had enough
    Heather is in love with herself, doesn’t allow any of her interesting guests speak and constantly interrupts them just to repeat the same stories or opinions of hers. It’s hard to listen to someone be socially rude and I often find myself feeling bad for her guest and turn off the podcast because I’m sick of hearing her talk about her again. Also her idea that her paid subscription is better is comical it’s so boring once the free trial was up I cancelled it. I’ll spare you, it’s just her talking about her.
  • Jules Soet King
    So good!
    Love the guests lately!

    Why the ginger hatred for sooo long
    I been a fan of yours all the way back to the Chelsea days. I remember you then and now making nasty comments about gingers how we are ugly gross, just not for you. I was wondering if there is a specific reason for this? A mean girl reread in high school or college? An ex, but I’m 100 w your distaste, you’d NEVER date a ‘ging’. Fill a redhead in?? Ps I come from a long line of beautiful Irish strawberry and reds.

    Live for Juicy Scoop!
    Tuesday and Thursday are literally my favorite days of the week because of this podcast! I’ve been listening since 2019 and just love Heather, she is a true delight! The shows are always extra funny and amazing whenever Chris, Spencer and Julie & Brandy are on! Also love the Patreon! Extra scoop on Friday’s are the best and juicy crimes with Shannon is always so interesting.
  • not a trol, just truthful
    Heather, get over yourself
    Heather is in love with Heather!

    Chris Franjola 💛
    If you love Chris Franjola- immediately go to his podcast, called cover to cover! Heather doesn’t let him talk much, but he is hilarious!!!! You will LOVE his podcast!!! COVER to COVER makes me laugh 10 times harder than juicy scoop!!!!
  • morningtoastisstale
    Fav pop culture podcast
    I just love Heather’s comedic and relatable take on things.
  • haDC
    That was random
    Please, don’t interrupt people. It’s a hard listen. I feel like you shouldn’t have Kate Casey on, you seem to interrupt every time she talked.
  • Jierlo
    Let Holly speak
    How many times do we have to hear about Heather at the Playboy Mansion and not being able to go anymore because she got married. Holly played this well and let just let HM talk about herself and her family like she always does. Learned a lot about her Dad today. How do you not know who Barbie Benton is? Laughable.
  • pint12
    Serious question
    Does heather have a low IQ? Sometimes she sounds so stupid.
  • TheRadioDude
    Serious question
    Does it Heather have a low IQ?
  • LABaby1986
    This podcast got me through so much….
    …but has morphed into something completely unrecognizable over the past year. You can hear fragments of what it used to be when Brandy and Julie are on - otherwise it is basically unlistenable. So sad to say good-bye.
  • Michelley mom
    Interrupt much?
    This lady is in love with her own voice. The way she just talked right over the Amazing Kate Casey??? As though she wasn’t even there? Kate was very gracious though and just let her go.
  • Falen88
    Holly Madison 😍🥰
    OK, Holly Madison and the girls next-door that’s my generation. I grew up watching that it was the first reality show I got into …love them. She’s so smart and cute.
  • blahblah12888
    No Holly
    I was a huge Girls Next Door fan but will never be able to listen when Holly is on. For someone who thinks so little of someone and was “so abused” by him, she sure has made a great living off using his name any chance she gets for money. 🤮
  • clairjmixon
    She’s the best
    It’s like she’s in my brain. She asks what I’m thinking and says what I’ve been saying. Love Heather.
  • Westindn
    Brandi and Julie
    I love your podcast all the time, you are so entertaining, but when Brandi and Julie are on, it’s a special kind of magic.
  • CCROW313
    Love your show
    Love listening to your podcast. I look forward to it and thanks for helping me get through my days by giving something to look forward to. You are an awesome person!

    The Housewives of (fill in the blank) is so 2019. I’m over all of it. Boring

    🛑
    Been a long time listener and used to look forward to Juicy Scoop. Not any more. At all. After years of Heather interrupting her guests, I just can’t stand it any longer. Sadly, she hasn’t learned from her viewers reviews. I wonder if she’s like that with people in general. Not a good look.
  • Dieseljn
    Love the pod!
    I love when Julie, brandy, Chris, Carlos king, Matt Murphy and your writer friend that was on Hacks guest star, and also when Kate Casey and nick Viall and Zack peters and dr drew. I just love the pod. 🩷
  • Saul323
    Juicy scooper since day 1…..
    Shallon lester….i couldn’t even finish the episode. That’s all.
  • Uhgigo
    Had to review based on today’s amazing episode (4/3/25)
    Juicy Scoop is my guilty pleasure and I love Heather’s humor and predictions. My favorite episodes are when Brandy and Julie are on, because when the three of these ladies are together, they are so darn funny. ❤️

    I have a theory
    I’ve been listening for a long time & this pod has become unbearable & unlistenable. Heather does it to herself bc she has to be the one talking without allowing guests to talk. I work inpatient psych for 25 years. I believe Heather is on the spectrum, high functioning Asperger’s. She HAS to complete her sentences, has to overtalk to make her point & if someone interrupts her, she’s agitated, voice inflection goes up & she still has to complete her sentences. She can’t let it go. The last couple of pods she actually told her guests to hold on so SHE could finish her sentences & never went back to them. When guests do get to talk, she does the fake “I’m interested in what they are saying” by going, yeahhhh, yeahhhh. While she is highly narcissistic, that’s a fact, she really has an over inflated sense of self. I don’t know who is paying for patron. In the words of HM, WHATEVERRRRR. So f’n dismissive.

    LET YOUR GUEST SPEAK!
    Nick Viall was launching into juicy info about Sandoval - so of course The Interrupter interrupted, completely cutting him off. She has horrible interviewing skills- like the worst of any podcast out there. Why does she even have guests? she’s so incredibly rude. She asked Nick to explain himself about a topic ,& the second he started speaking, she jumped in again and cut him off mid sentence. She also criticized her guest which is totally uncool. There’s a reason people don’t like heather
  • caitbabo
    Thank you Heather
    Thank you for speaking up about gun safety and the dangers associated with having a firearm in the house. Thank you for helping to bring awareness to family fire.
  • ErinNYC
    Shallon Lester
    This was the first time I’ve ever turned off your podcast and for sure the first time I’ve been moved to review a podcast anywhere! I have been listening for five years, think you are a delight, bought tickets to your shows all the things. Lester was the most cringeworthy guest you’ve had (I understand you are trying to see both sides). But the idea of guns in your nightstand, guns in your car is so not responsible to advocate for, when small children are literally finding guns and accidentally shooting each other on a nearly daily basis. And the fact that she’s so proud of herself for never apologizing for anything. Not a real winner there. Made me sad.

    Interview with Kate Casey
    Heather is not a good interviewer- she talks over her guests and only interested in herself.
  • C_L3K
    Great guest

    Love Heather
    Not a fan of of this Kate lady at all. I feel like she has resting b***c face. I would rather have Spencer in her place all day.

    Stop interrupting!!
    She asked her guest how to pronounce “The Substance”….shes supposed to be a pop news ‘queen’…far from it. …She says ‘whatever’ every other sentence when she doesn’t know facts or names. She also started saying ‘anyways’ too much. In addition to the lack of juicy scoop (she gets her news and some conspiracy theories from Tic Toc), and the nonstop “whatever’s” are too much, had to unsubscribe.
  • TRS336
    PLEASE NEW INTRO MUSIC
    Love love the show but good grief the intro “rap” is so so so so so cringe. It’s almost painful. Please Heather…. New intro music?
  • Ex Juicy Scooper
    Ewww
    Heather’s opinions are out of touch and pathetic.
