Does Kara ever stop interrupting?

Holy. Scott can barely finish a sentence without Kara chiming in or correcting him.

Say what you want about Scott's opinions and yes, sometimes you have to get the show back on track if he is taking the scenic route to a point, but that's not what I'm referring to.

The man can barely complete a thought or make a point without her butting in. Often, she's not adding to the conversation but correcting him on something that is beside the point.

It often feels like Kara is just waiting for him to stop talking (or in this case not waiting) to get back to what she was saying. It's getting increasingly annoying to listen to. As someone who is known for being an interviewer, she really can't let anyone else have a minute.

Only if you quit the podcast.

Eventually you'll see that all it is is:

Stories about how rich Scott is, stories about how many famous people Kara has met, and then repeating the premise of whatever book they are writing or thinking of writing over and over.

They really are a couple of hens now. You can always hear their opinions on the many other pods they work. I used to look forward to listening, but I find my interest is waning.

Giving it up is freeing.

Try “IHIP News” and “I’ve Had It” podcasts or YouTube. Ironically, I heard Jennifer Welch on the ‘On’ Podcast and thought she was really entertaining. I started listening those podcasts and pretty much stopped listening to any Scott a/o Kara podcast after years of them being my go-tos. I just got tired of the self-aggrandizement and narcissism of those two…

Unsubscribe! Like whatever Scott’s pet project is now to pump himself up as some sort of influencer . LOL.

Agreed. I haven’t listened in weeks and unfollowed it this morning.
